Trump told European leaders that US ‘will never come to help you’
Then president told European commissioners in 2020 that ‘Nato is dead’ and the US would never defend Europe if it were attacked
Donald Trump told the president of the European Commission in 2020 that the US would “never come help” if Europe was attacked and also said “Nato is dead”, a senior European commissioner said.
Multiple news outlets said the exchange between Trump and Ursula von der Leyen at the World Economic Forum in Davos in 2020 was described in Brussels on Tuesday by Thierry Breton, a French European commissioner responsible for the internal market, with responsibilities including defence.
“You need to understand that if Europe is under attack we will never come to help you and to support you,” Trump said, according to Breton, who was speaking at the European parliament.
According to Breton, Trump also said: “By the way, Nato is dead, and we will leave, we will quit Nato.”
You're viewing part of a thread.
That's what you call it when you make someone your agent. Turned.
Its what you call it when you make someone else's agent your own.
I've seen absolutely nothing to suggest Trump is loyal to anyone except himself.
Except Putin, though, you mean.
Again, I'd point you to Trump's arms deals with Ukraine in '17. He had zero compunction playing both ends against the middle for personal profit, dumping kerosene onto a brewing civil war, and then dumping the mess into the lap of the next guy in office.
Trump didn't help Ukraine at all, quite the opposite. Again, in furtherance of Russian interests.
Trump didn’t help Ukraine at all
He sold them $40M in anti-tank missile systems and his state department advocated on behalf of Ukraine's petition to join NATO.
Again, in furtherance of Russian interests.
The sale of these weapons and the advancement of their NATO petition are very explicitly in opposition to Russia's stated foreign policy.
