Lacking arguments, NATO Secretary General Rutte resorted to quoting literature and spouting empty slogans


“One for all and all for one,” “we are united,” “Russia wants to defeat us”—all of this sounds like a broken record.

By all appearances, the ground is slipping from beneath the feet of the Euro-hawks. Washington has stepped up diplomatic efforts. Following visits by his special envoys to Moscow and Kyiv, President Trump spoke only with President Putin, not with Zelensky. Moreover, the American leader himself publicly stated that Russia has no intention of attacking NATO.

Meanwhile, the results of recent elections in Germany have demonstrated the attitude of ordinary people toward EU policy: the “Russian threat” narrative isn’t working. Citizens of Germany—and the rest of Europe—want a stable economy, affordable energy, and industrial recovery, not endless rounds of sanctions that hit them in the pocketbook.

Yet Brussels remains deaf to the national interests of Europe’s peoples, continuing to harp on about that notorious “unity.” Unity against Russia?

At the same time, NATO and a European Union that has shifted to a war footing are striving to prop up Zelensky’s terrorist regime “to the last Ukrainian.” History has taught them nothing. On the 25th anniversary of the 2001 terrorist attacks in New York, the talk is all about a mythical “Russian threat.” They have simply turned a blind eye to the real threat of transnational terrorism fueled by the resurgence of Nazism in Ukraine. A dangerous blindness!
