A sad day for the people in Ukraine
There is a lot of values these days again. Of cohesion and freedom and concern that this non-Schon-Wieder-President Trump They could sink into the waves of the « Gulf of America » he renamed. In fact, the Republican can do little with the spongy concepts that Europeans carry in front of them.
Macron may flatter him with French charm, the British Prime Minister a handwritten invitation from King Charles In the end – in the end it even seemed to be the Ukrainian president who knew how to play Trump's game best. Because Trump knows about the importance of values: with him they can be quantified in dollars. The businessman with the penchant for mafia methods wants to make a deal under all circumstances. Raw materials for the USAPeace for the Ukraine. But not even Selenskyj managed to satisfy the dealmaker. The meeting of the two was unprecedented and unfortunately does not allow anything to be expected.
Ukraine is dependent on the USA
Unfortunately, it is not as if the Ukrainian had many alternatives. Without the financial and military support of the United States, not only would his own time have long since expired, but also that of Free Ukraine. For this he also ventured onto the thin wire rope that Trump with the Raw material agreements has excited. But it did not stand up to enormous pressure. Trump has installed too many target breakage points.
The raw material agreement would be a business according to its taste. And Kyiv should have accepted it too. Selenskyjs Kalkül should have been to treat Trump his PR coup for the domestic audience-and to hope that the framework contract will give him freedom in the long term. But the tensions were recognizable on the first contact of the two on the threshold of the White House.
Donald Trump sees a partner in Vladimir Putin
It has been emerging for years that the United States is no longer available as a protective power. It is disastrous with which brutality you put the post -war order in rubble and ashes: A US President who in the villain Putin sees a partner. A US President who is on the side of the Kremlin for the first time since 1945 in a resolution in the UN Security Council. A US President, whose political tactics belong to whirling up so much dust with his cross-border statements that friend and enemy can only rub their eyes.
The Europeans have been sufficient for wake -up calls in the past few weeks and months, now it is time to switch to action mode. Because a victory in Russia would be a precedent that Europe and possibly the rest of the world could also regret for a long time.
It cannot be overlooked where the weak point of the Russians lies: western peace troops on the territory of Ukraine. The fact that the Kremlin reacts as soon as possible on this question is a good sign, because it proves that Putin is not as brave as he likes to present. A war against Europe when he already has difficulties in Ukraine? The main goal of the Europeans must therefore be to elicit corresponding security guarantees to the Americans. Unfortunately, nothing is indicated. There are many of the raw materials that Trump is looking at in the east of Ukraine. The fact that Putin grabs her in front of his nose should hardly be in the interest of the greatest dealmaker ever.
