EU Leaders Fear US ‘Betrayal’ on Ukraine Peace Talks – Media

 

EU leaders “harbor profound distrust of” Washington’s attempts to help end the Ukraine conflict, Der Spiegel reported on Thursday, citing a transcript of their recent phone call that it obtained.

On Monday, French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz held a phone call with Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky and several other European leaders, including Finnish President Alexander Stubb and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.

The call came just a day before US President Donald Trump’s special envoy, Steve Witkoff, and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, visited Moscow for talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“There is a possibility that the US will betray Ukraine on the issue of territory without clarity regarding security guarantees,” Macron reportedly said during the call. The issue of territories remains one of the most sensitive in the negotiations. The original US-drafted peace plan reportedly required Ukraine to cede parts of Donbass it still controls among other things. The EU outright rejected this condition, insisting that Kiev should not give up any territories.

Macron also stated that continued peace talks could pose a “great danger” for Zelensky personally – an assessment shared by Merz, Stubb, and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, who also took part in the conversation, according to Der Spiegel. – RT

Our Take: I love this headline. It is music to my ears. That is because I view NATO and the EU as the actual bad guys in the geopolitical soap opera, and actually the USA, as well. (Portions of it, at least.)

That is because the United States has been run by some of the world’s most violent psychopaths of the past century.

Even now, as I type this, large swaths of MAGA are cheering for regime change and NeoCon forever wars, fooled by the MAGA branding that has been applied to reflect the Trump Presidency. But these wars — Venezuela, for example — have been planned by the NeoCons for decades.

If you found yourself cheering, just realize that you are cheering for a George Bush agenda item. If you find yourself cheering for warfare, chances are you have been duped, especially if your newly established opinion happens to align with both Fox News and CNN.

Don’t be fooled by CNN. They are always looking for ways to incriminate President Trump, but they are also platforming former [USAID-backed] Latin American leaders, such as former Colombian president Ivan Duque, who fully supports the US military campaign to overthrow Nicolas Maduro.

The same goes with the Israel-Gaza conflict. You are fooling yourself if you think that CNN and MSNBC actually oppose Israel. Those media outlets help form the contrived dialectic that enable’s the perpetual Israeli aggression that we have seen exercised against the entire Middle East.

So what happens with NATO and Europe? God willing, we will see both NATO and the EU collapse from financial mismanagement along with public rebuke.

Russia isn’t going to conquer the European, which is unfortunate for Europe — they really could use the lifeline. If Europe is lucky, and they play their cards right, they will get the privilege of holding America’s jockstrap, and we will make sure that their civilization doesn’t completely collapse into obscurity. Europe has a very long road of recovery ahead of it, and much of the world — which has suffered from European ambition — would be fine with Europe’s demise.

So, yes, Prime Minster Merz, President Trump is going to betray you and your ilk. Because that is the morally righteous thing to do. – GhostofBasedPatrickHenry
