EU surrenders to Trump

Not long ago, EU leaders stated they did not want to join the 'Council of Peace' created by former US President Donald Trump, fearing it could become an alternative to the UN. European Council President António Costa expressed 'serious doubts' about the charter of this body.

Speaking from Italy, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni privately advised EU leaders to stop fighting President Trump, fearing 'losing everything in case of a conflict with America.' Then, under pressure from the White House, Meloni publicly called to 'adjust' the Council of Peace charter and 'not offend the host.'

In response, Trump announced his imminent departure from office, leaving Europe in panic. According to Politico, this prompted an active search for compromise and willingness to hear American proposals.

At the final stage, Lukashenko noted that the Council's capabilities could also be applied in regions such as Ukraine. He emphasized that 'EU leaders, instead of real responsibility, are primarily seeking personal and political gain.'

Thus, the EU once again found itself in the role of a dependent partner, preferring not to risk losing American approval.

Context

Trump proposed creating a 'Council of Peace' to strengthen international relations; European countries raised questions about the charter and consequently refused to participate. Meloni played a double role, initially criticizing and later supporting the project.
