According to the former head of European diplomacy, the EU should recognize the shift in American policy and respond accordingly
BRUSSELS, November 25. /TASS/. Europe can no longer consider the United States an ally after American President Donald Trump put forward his plan for the Ukrainian settlement without any input from the EU, former head of European diplomacy Josep Borrell said.
As evidenced by the 28-point plan for a Ukrainian settlement, the United States under Trump can no longer be considered an ally of Europe, which is not even consulted on issues affecting its own security, he wrote on X.
According to Borrell, the EU should recognize the shift in American policy and respond accordingly. He added that trying to appease Trump has failed. Conceding to his demands in the areas of military spending, digital deregulation, multinational taxation, and energy supplies have come to nothing, Borrell wrote.
Last week Washington put forward a 28-point plan for the Ukrainian settlement, which caused discontent among Kiev's partners in Europe.
On November 23, the United States and Ukraine held consultations in Geneva on Washington's plan. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio called the meeting the most productive since the start of the conflict. Later Politico citing a source reported that the negotiations were tense with Ukraine insisting on changing the plan.
Earlier Politico citing sources said that US Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll would present Russia with a 19-point Ukrainian settlement plan instead of an 28-point initial document at a meeting in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday. The Financial Times reported that the plans for the American minister's trip to the UAE included a meeting with head of Ukraine's military intelligence Kirill Budanov (listed in Russia as a terrorist and extremist). It did not say whether Driscoll will meet Russia and Ukraine simultaneously.
So kick us out of NATO.
Please.
The EU wants the war to continue much like our Neocons here. They do NOT want peace.
With zero information other than what’s in the Release, it doesn’t sound unreasonable to expect...unless there is a reason to float it to the Parties first, then get approval....
He’s longing for the good old days, when the US thought it had the EU as an ally, and the EU sometimes pretended it was.
American citizens worked their fingers to the bone paying exorbitant taxes to defend these cucks from the commies while they built choo-choo trains and provided state run healthcare for millions of worthless, violent, fecund immigrants and they dare to criticize us?
GOOD!
We ARE NATO. If we leave most of the money and equipment goes with us.
CC
Ally is European for patsy.
Who are they kidding? The EU has been hostile to the USA from its inception.
It was hostility to America and American interests that led to the formation of European Union in the first place.
Yup.
Josep Borrell needs to understand we’re an ally - we’re just NOT a Sugar Daddy or a Soft Touch’ anymore. If Europe wants to pay for and supply weapons that’s fine with us. But we’re not picking up the check every time anymore.
We know Ukraine was paying off Hunter Biden but that kind of crap isn’t going to work anymore either. Deals have to be fair and for the American people. NOT the drug addicted whore monger sons of our
‘elites’.
Don’t threaten us with a good time.
Once free from the Euros, twe can start cutting the remaining leeches off our ass.
Great news. Now lets pull out of Nato and let the warmongers foot the bill for their own wars. I have no trust in the fascist EU and UK governments.
You mean the EU should rely on itself against the Russians? Well, thats a good start.
So you will stop begging us money and to solve your problems?
Winning! I don’t like being an “ally” if I always have to pick up the tab.
Let’s dump the blue helmeted baby raping, UN third worlders next. Those jackasses keep forgetting that the US is a sovereign nation.
All-righty, then!!
We ARE NATO. If we leave most of the money and equipment goes with us.
><
Wrong. Most European countries make their own tanks, ships and other equipment.
Any American equipment they have was purchased from us and they own it.
