Kyiv’s White House wooing implodes as Zelenskyy tells the truth about Trump
All America’s allies know that Trump is trapped in a disinformation bubble, but Zelenskyy said it out loud
You're viewing a single thread.
I will put my trust in Zelenskyy and his team (keep in mind I didn't vote for him in 2019, but I respect him for his courage and commitment to fighting back against russian genocidal imperialism).
My personal take is there is nothing to gain from working with Trump. He is a corrupt right wing authoritarian oligarch, of course he is going to back Putin. Might as well "rip off the bandaid" now and deal with reality. A more sober public posture towards Trump and US oligarchs (and implicitly parts of American society) might actually push the EU to act with haste and avoid putting their heads in the sand.
I am not saying this will work, but we don't have many good options. In such a situation, you might as well go with a high risk, high reward strategy.
EU to act with haste and avoid putting their heads in the sand.
This is 200% needed, I believe for sure, something ( hopefully big) is in the making.
Northern European citizens seem certainly in favor. To me, the Southern-Europe stance is less clear.
Also, afaik, all EU( Orbán probably not?), UK, Australia, Canada and Turkya acknowledge Zelensky as the current democratic elected president, and have send out press-releases. They are trying to pressure Trump's administration. We'll probably know much more after de German election, because they are waiting for them to go forward. Merz seems to be the favorite, and he promised a more proactive stance.
But, these are all words, now we need also concrete material actions using a win-win strategy. We all need to remain souverign and so we hope.
Without impactful actions (including ones that are not on the radar of US/Russia), the statements are pointless.
impactful actions
exactly.
