I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence.

Zelensky has thanked Trump, Congress, and the American people many times.
But let's be clear: when Trump and Vance said that THEY are trying to help Ukraine right now, and need to be thanked for the work personally, there are reasons to wonder.
btw UNGA members backed the European resolution by 93 votes but, extraordinarily, the US did not abstain but actually voted against it, along with Russia, Israel, North Korea, Sudan, Belarus, Hungary and 11 other states, with 65 abstentions.

Trump and J.D. Vance glorified President Vladimir Zelensky. The United States is no longer "America". From 1776 to today, the United States has managed to make us forget its short history of violence and genocide.
Dit is een fundamentele breuk met het trans-atlantisme. De NAVO is vandaag gestorven. Dit zie ik niet meer goed komen. Europa moet goed nadenken of we nog wel belang hebben bij de NAVO als aanhangwagen van deze maffiabende.
