Europe can no longer rely on the United States to protect it, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said today, urging the bloc to take its destiny in its own hands.
"It is no longer such that the United States simply protects us, but Europe must take its destiny in its own hands, that's the task of the future," she said, after US President Donald Trump left traditional allies scrambling by ditching the landmark Iran nuclear deal.
And now, neither can Iran. :)
See ya, wouldn’t want to be ya...
Maybe if Germany were not a safe haven for Jihadists who keep on crossing the border and given freebies Germany would have a chance to defend “Itself”
German Hillary speaks!
But Israel can...
A little too late to appeal to the nationalists given your borders are wide open and you have no budget to build a decent military back up without the help of the backward French and Italians.
When Russia starts to encroach in the Balkans, she’ll be back.
It’s about effing time. They needed to take control of their own after WWII.
GFY, female Hitler.
“Europe can no longer rely on US to ‘protect’ it: Angela Merkel”
That was your CHOICE, Angie.
BUH-Bye!
I think Angela has it backwards, there is no it to defend.
Europe must take its destiny in its own hands
Must be some sort of germanic/franco joke.
Merkel and Macron Declare Europe Can No Longer Rely on US for Protection and Security...
They certainly give up easily. Learned Behavior I guess.
Good take care of yourself you will be better off
Pull out our troops. In 10 years they will all be at each others’ throats like Shiites vs Sunni...oh wait.
Shes only echoing the noise the Euros have been making since the 1980s. If there were a real threat to their existence, theyd be calling on us to protect them again.
Sheesh...aren’t you rushing things a bit? It’s only been 73 years.
EU is basically owned by Germany.
Germany won WWII
