God, I hope that's more than just rhetoric. Let the shock of the US's unforgivable betrayal lead to serious action from Europe.
If the UK and Europe all rally behind Ukraine as a massive fuck you to Trump, it would be absolutely magnificent.
Trump is an absolute embarrassment. How he treated Zelensky was beyond shameful.
So much of what is publicly known about the UK's intelligence capability (presumably military too) is tied up with the US. Based on this alone I'd bet that we (as in the UK) are simply not in any position to turn around and defy the US.
Remaining trapped in this position moving forwards is another matter. Europe has no choice but to develop capabilities that do not rely on the US. Only an idiot would think this is good for the US.
Yup. Those are our Trump Supporters. They think he's just swell.
