America’s allies adjust to Trump’s abandonment

French President Emmanuel Macron came to the White House this week and its old president, Donald Trump He did not receive him even the door It also requires the protocol to visit world leaders. It is not the most important base that Trump delivered in the garbage in his first month in his position, but she said. The president does not consider that it is necessary to show the respect of the traditional allies in America anymore. Macron may also be a door from door to door.

They did not hold as much as they did in the first period of Trump, but they obtained two lush press in some extent in which the two leaders demonstrated that they were friends and MACRON who gently corrected Trump on a couple of his most terrible lies about Ukraine, which is that the United States has spent more than Europe on the military aid of the war torn and that Ukraine has started the war. In general, he does not seem to have accomplished a lot since Trump has believed that he will be seen as a wonderful peace maker if he forced Ukraine to surrender to Russia while former American allies can understand that he cannot care about what they think about anything.

Macron is scheduled to respond to the heads of European states today, and tomorrow will be the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Kiir Starmer at the White House, to experience another round that is likely to have the same result. All this urgent diplomacy It came after Trump accused France and the United Kingdom of not doing anything in three years to “end the war.” Macron called a Crisis meeting From European leaders in Paris last week to discuss the next steps. They will spend again this week after Starmer returned home to find out where they are standing.

I understand that they have to try, although writing on the wall. After all, the alliances that were formed after the Second World War to ensure that there is no other world war catastrophic, peace, prosperity and security over the past eighty years. The sudden destruction of a 78 -year -old man from a strong man, who is difficult to accept his definition without any doubt without any question about reciprocity. But it seems that they have no option and the consequences are enormous.

One of the main purposes of the NATO alliance and the rest of the US security guarantees during the past eighty years was to ensure that the long enmity between the countries participating in the two world wars will not force them to re -fall and do everything again. The brief alliance between the United States and the Soviets did not last to overcome the Nazis, and the Cold War followed by the wars of an agent around the world did not last, as the nuclear forces competed for influence. However, this confrontation managed to prevent the worst scenario of cases and the United States and its allies in the end with the disintegration of the Soviet Union, which was completed without another huge fire.

This happened more than 35 years ago, and it was not a ridiculous idea that reassessing this global system after the First World War was late. Although Trump’s thinking was a boy and unmatched, he was not a completely heinous request in his first term, Europe must capture more national defense tab. The security umbrella in America was expensive and the world was changing, so the decline to allow others to have a greater role was not completely crazy.

But then Russia invaded Ukraine and the logic of the NATO coalition suddenly was related again. In fact, it was extremely important that the countries that had long been hindered by joining the coalition, Finland and Sweden, were so disturbed by the Russian aggression that they finally joined. The coalition agreed to provide Ukraine with military supplies and weapons that will need to defend itself, not only because of sympathy, but the knowledge that this type of aggression was exactly how matters came out of control twice before. It also turned out that 80 years are not long in the great plan for things after all.

Unfortunately, Donald Trump is unaware of all of this and will not care anyway. For reasons, no one may fully understand that he has almost a pre -normal rapprochement for Russian President Vladimir Putin and is seen in resentment towards Europe. Given that Trump was elected twice now, Europe is late that the United States is no longer a reliable ally and publicly talks about his armament. Starmer UK Declared this week To plan to raise defense spending significantly (at the expense of external aid), the new advisor in Germany, Freders Mirz, explained in a speech after the elections at the end of last week that his country will not depend on the United States on its security.

Politico mentioned:

Trump administration does not care about Europe Compatibility with RussiaMirz, who is on his way to becoming the new leader of Germany, said. He warned that the continent should enhance its defenses and may find a substitute for NATO – within months. […]

“My absolute priority will be to strengthen Europe as soon as possible, so that we can achieve independence from the United States of America,” said Germany’s waiting adviser. “I didn’t think I would say something like this on a TV program. But after Donald Trump’s comments last week at the latest, it is clear that the Americans, at least this part of the Americans, this administration, is very indifferent to the fate of Europe.”

You can’t blame them. But in light of the new fascism that comes in second place in the last elections, you cannot blame each other for a little tension from where Which – which It may lead. But we just have ourselves to blame.

It is not wrong that the United States is in line with Russia and they are also tension. Selling Ukraine He almost started the moment Trump took office. He has Exclude them (And European allies) from “peace talks”, ” The smiling natural resources as “compensation” For the money that America has spent on its defense, it demanded that Russia be It is allowed in G7, Ukrainian President Volodimi calledZ dictator And he said Ukraine began the war. At the United Nations on Tuesday, the United States joined Russia, Blasusia and North Korea, in Opposition a decision condemning the Moscow war against Ukraine. All this was done without asking anything from Russia. In fact, it comes with a promise Penalty And work on Joint economic projects.

Post -War II alliances are set aside in favor of a new basin with strong leaders such as Vladimir Putin, the eleventh Jinping of Chinese, Recep Tayeb Erdogan in Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman. All of this is based on Trump’s personal admiration for their leaders, not any kind of strategic logic. The world has begun to accept that this is real and seized accordingly.

Financial times were published in the United Kingdom A sad Mass for the Great War Alliance on the last day, which ended with these words:

After three generations of the American leadership, it is always tempting that Trump does not mean what he says. Perhaps this is a deception in some great art of the deal. But the allies and former friends must remove these amazing ideas. With Trump, what you see is what you get. America turned.
