Europe will not submit to an ‘insular and brutal world’, says Carney

Europe will not submit to a more “brutal world”, and can instead be the base from which a new international order can be rebuilt, Mark Carney, the Canadian prime minister, has said.

Carney was speaking as the first non-European leader to attend a meeting of the European Political Community, which opened on Monday amid high tensions in the strait of Hormuz and renewed doubts about the US commitment to Nato.

“We don’t think that we’re destined to submit to a more transactional, insular and brutal world, and gatherings such as these point to a better way forward,” he said.

In a pointed suggestion that the era of American leadership was coming to an end, and explaining the symbolism of Canada’s attendance at a European political gathering, he said: “It is my strong personal view that the international order will be rebuilt, but it will be rebuilt out of Europe.

“We are demonstrating not just the strength of our values in defending a rules-based international order, but also the value of our strength,” he added. “The world is undergoing a rupture across several dimensions – integration is being used as a weapon by some and the rules are not constraining the hegemons.”

The EPC meeting, the eighth since the organisation’s inception, is taking place in Yerevan, Armenia, a venue chosen as a way of showing Europe’s determination to prevent the small Caucasus country from being dragged back into Russia’s orbit.

...Europe will not submit to a more “brutal world”..

Ha! Europe is bending over backwards for an Islamic invasion. It is even giving the enemy all kinds of free stuff. Meanwhile the native populations, naturally resistant to all that rapey stabby stuff, get arrested for merely connecting the dots out loud.

Carney is a member of the “World Enslavement Forum” and wants a “New World Order”

This sounds like he is going to reject the brutality of Islam which is defined as submission, because what else could he be talking about?

It looks like the interventionist, globalist world has been even more brutal. What exactly is this guy babbling about?

Europe has already condemned itself to an insular and brutal world when they allowed the Islamoterrorists to enter their countries.

Well Canada was founded by loyalists who didn’t have the stones to stand up to the British. On a basic level not much has changed l guess.

Well Carney should resign as PM of Canada and move to the EU not try and drag Canada into the EU , Non-EU countries can’t be members of the EU anyway unless Carney has a very big Bribe

Good luck with all that when you can’t even defend yourselves.
