Finally! Emmanuel Macron is saying the quiet part out loud: “Donald Trump was elected by Americans to defend the interests of Americans.

Genau so ist es. Und alle in Europa (und darüber hinaus) schauen nach Deutschland und reiben sich die Augen. Ich hatte letzte Woche auf einer Konferenz mehrere Gespräche unter anderem mit Griechen, Spaniern, Italienern, Franzosen, Chinesen, Amerikanern. Teilweise wollte man mir nicht glauben, was bei uns gemacht wird und man reagiert dazu mit totalem Unverständnis für unseren politischen Eiertanz und das Ausmaß des wirtschaftspolitischen Chaos.
What changed Emmanuel Macron? Fear of accountability?
Macron didn’t get the memo that it is only U.S and China and Europe is playing a supporting role for the U.S. that is it.
Define Europe's interests first.
Europe? Which Europe?
Which Europeans? Who feels European?
How many years of EU? And we are still debating our role and our power? That's why we are followers and never leaders
If the future of Europe relies on Macron's leadership, it's definitly the end of it...
This election will push Europe to come together as a strong force since there’s no support from the US.

3dI am going to pull up a chair and get the popcorn out Linas Beliūnas. This is long overdue in the EU Project. They have lost their energy advantage with cheap Russian gas, their manufacturing power house (Germany), has missed the technology transition in mobility, Trump is going to provide LNG at 4x the Russian rate, very high energy costs. the EU currently relies on the US for some of the EU share of NATO funding, and China is the new mobility leader. Darwin will decide the future of the EU.
