“This is not Europe’s war,” the EU tells Washington in a bruising rebuke on Iran even as oil prices rise.
Europe’s message to Donald Trump on Monday was clear: We’re not helping you secure the Strait of Hormuz.
Foreign ministers from the 27 EU countries gathered in Brussels to discuss the American president’s call for European countries to help secure the narrow waterway, a vital oil shipping channel that Iran has largely blocked in retaliation for U.S. and Israeli airstrikes.
Among the ideas floated was expanding the mandate of the EU’s naval mission — Aspides — to allow European warships to be sent to patrol the strait between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman.
Week 1: “We won”
Week 2: “We’re winning”
Week 3: “Send help
Week 4: “It’s Biden’s fault we are at war with Iran!”
JD actually blamed the higher oil prices on Biden already, it’s only a matter of time before Hunter Biden and Hillary’s emails are also blamed! It’s unbelievable yet on par for the man child who has never been told no.
It’s more unbelievable it kind of works
Kind of. He will say he did this to benefit our allies. Definitely blame Biden, but also our allies and nato. It’s their fault things are a mess cause they aren’t helping.
The only thing the “Allies” (there are none left) and NATO should be “helping” with is unseating the traitors in the White House. They probably would be on board to help with that, actually. But again, at this point everyone of us outside the US is just sort of cringing and trying not to make eye contact anymore.
As an American citizen who still believes in the actual Constitution and the values that were enshrined Within I can say that I am perfectly happy with Europe telling us to f*** off.
Seriously considering becoming a refugee.
things have got to get really bad for you to consider living in a tent on the border for 6 or more months and running the risk of being sent back due to treaties after those 6 months and having to start over.
i’m not suggesting they aren’t, just, don’t flee just because of shit you’ve seen on the news. flee because of shit you’ve seen in person.
Blackmail is literally trumps only card.
The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout “Save us!” and I’ll look down, and whisper “No”.
Operation “Epstien files? Which Epstein files?” is going swimmingly!
God i hope the fact that they refuse to call this a war ruins his plan of election interference where he claims we can’t have elections ‘as normal’ because ‘we’re in the middle of a war’. Wartime act to insist on weapons production? Nope, not at war!
I bet Trump wanted Europe to pay for the 3 M$ patriot missiles they would use to shoot down styrofoam drones too.
