It started in 1990 when James Baker promised Gorbachev that NATO would not expand one inch further eastward if Russia agreed to the reunification of Germany, thereby officially ending WW II.
Democrats are an historically illiterate pack of thugs. The scary part is that they know it and don’t care.
“a new world where it was harder to depend on the United States.”
We have enough domestic dependents, and we’re busy now shedding millions of foreign dependents gifted us by democrats and cheap labor rinos.
Europe. You’re emancipated.
They need to figure it out. We have our own problems. They should probably conscript some of their Syrian refugees to staff their European army.
“Crisis”
The new Democratic Party buzzword.
Why don't they ask our allies in Afghanistan how reliable we were under Biden.
They may in crisis.....meh!
F Europe. Get our troops out of Europe and get out of NATO. That Eurotrash isn’t worth saving and it certainly isn’t worth even one American life. Our existential threat today is Red China, not Russia. That’s where we need to be focusing on.
Gorbachev did not negotiate well. He should have insisted on it as part of a proposal instead of taking Baker’s word for it.
Exactly. This was in crisis long before Trump ever got inot office.
NYT is such a good bird cage bottom. Don’t know why they even put print on it.
MEGA. For starters, let the people vote. The war pig woke regimes will fall soon enough.
NATO and the UN have both long outlived their purpose.
“European leaders felt certain about one thing after a whirlwind tour by Trump officials — they were entering a new world where it was harder to depend on the United States.”
Sure because they could depend on Biden to fall asleep on the beach while the acting President caved in to what ever the EU wanted.
First it was a “threat to our democracy” then a “constitutional crisis” now it’s just “crises”. Next up? Calamity? Sure Death for us all? I have poo pop britches?
I suspect you are correct! Scholz is out. Macron soon. Starmer soon. And oddly, Orbán is among those who have clear electoral support. As the USAID NGOs must now cut budgetary corners big time, it is likely they will further weaken the corrupt elite.
Next, Mayhem!
They SHOULD be in a state of crisis!
We saved their asses once and they rip us off.
