      He can „cultivate“ in his backjard. Don’t need his poisonous ideologies in Europe

      I’d like to think that this will unite Europeans to make the changes they need (capital markets union, more joint decision making for efficient defence), but plenty of politicians, media and other actors will be all too happy to sow division, chaos and weakness in Europe to make a quick buck off the backs of their country’s population and general ignorance, all the while claiming to be the „true patriots“. Not helped by all the Americans who control the algororithms of social media, and therefore peoples‘ minds now.

    3. Trump’s America have made it quite clear they were attempting to aid and promote far-right parties. It’s a bit like the attitude Nazi Germany had towards the Nordics ideologically.

      There’s been a few threads about American troops leaving Europe, and there was some people who said „good“, but with time to think of it, the problem is that even if they completely exit NATO, they’re still going to try to meddle in internal politics.

      The irony of citing „sovereignty“ when it’s a plan to shape Europe according to their own insanity. Hopefully the internal and economic cracks already showing across the Atlantic will prevent Trump and his cronies from continuing this project.

      lol. US being the world cop is just so cliché. IMO, ‚National Security Strategy‘ is just a fancy way of poking nose into other’s business.

    5. FT article

      >A new US national security strategy is calling for “cultivating resistance” in Europe, warning that the continent is subverting democracy, blocking peace in Ukraine and facing “civilisational erasure” from high migration and falling birth rates.

      > The document blames European officials for thwarting US efforts to end the war in Ukraine, accusing governments of ignoring what it claims is a “large European majority” that wants peace.

      > An “expeditious cessation of hostilities” is essential “to stabilise European economies, prevent unintended escalation or expansion of the war, and reestablish strategic stability with Russia”, according to the document, which was published on Friday.

      > Its release comes as US President Donald Trump makes a renewed push to end the war in Ukraine.

      > The effort has sparked fears in European capitals that Washington is prepared to force Kyiv to make concessions on several of its long-standing red lines.

      > The 33-page document underscores the radical reorientation of US foreign policy under Trump, elevating American dominance of the western hemisphere in an updated version of the Monroe Doctrine as its primary objective.

      > “The days of the United States propping up the entire world order like Atlas are over,” it says.

      > It also highlights the ideological gulf that has opened up between Washington and its traditional allies, depicting a European continent where “economic decline is eclipsed by the real and more stark prospect of civilisational erasure”.

      > In a direct challenge to the EU, it says America should be “cultivating resistance to Europe’s current trajectory within European nations”. It also lauds the growing political influence of Eurosceptic far-right parties, whose rise to power in EU capitals could threaten the bloc’s future.

      > “American diplomacy should continue to stand up for genuine democracy, freedom of expression, and unapologetic celebrations of European nations’ individual character and history,” the strategy says.

      > “America encourages its political allies in Europe to promote this revival of spirit, and the growing influence of patriotic European parties indeed gives cause for great optimism.”

      > The strategy has strong echoes of a speech US vice-president JD Vance delivered to the Munich Security Forum in February, which stunned European allies for its adversarial tone and its claim that Europe faced a greater threat from its own democratic failings than from Russian aggression.

      > The US will pursue a policy of “burden-shifting”, according to the document, with the aim of making Europe “stand on its own feet and operate as a group of aligned sovereign nations, including by taking primary responsibility for its own defence”.

      > It calls for a “readjustment of our global military presence to address urgent threats in our Hemisphere, especially the missions identified in this strategy, and away from theaters whose relative import to American national security has declined in recent decades or years”.

      > The release of the national security strategy will be followed next year by the US defence posture review that will shift US military assets to meet new foreign policy priorities.

      > The security strategy largely addresses China as an economic challenge, saying Washington will “rebalance America’s economic relationship with China, prioritising reciprocity and fairness to restore American economic independence”.

      > But it adds that “this must be accompanied by a robust and ongoing focus on deterrence to prevent war in the Indo-Pacific”.

      > It says that “this combined approach can become a virtuous cycle as strong American deterrence opens up space for more disciplined economic action, while more disciplined economic action leads to greater American resources to sustain deterrence in the long term”.

      Because paywall and we’re poor now.

      Has anything good come from trumps America? For anyone other than Trump of course.

    7. goldstarflag on

      So this new Security Strategy doesn’t mention China, Russia or anything else except their *own hemisphere* and *Europe*. Very telling.

    8. 50_61S-----165_97E on

      So the far right populist parties that are infecting Europe will now be supported by Russia *and* USA? Well that’s a curveball I didn’t see coming

    9. No_Conversation_9325 on

      Im cultivating resistance against the bs US is spreading just fine.

    10. So basically Russia’s security strategy? In this case, to likely benefit the billionaires.

    11. It’s interesting that the strategy specifically focuses on „cultivating resistance to Europe’s current trajectory“ in addition to „celebrating European nations‘ individual character“ and „growing influence of patriotic European parties“. These are all direct quotes.

      The US is terrified of the the prospect of European integration, because that means they would have to see us as peers. What they want is a fragmented and subservient block of nations. This was always suspected but had never been spelled out clearly, now it absolutely is.

      Wake up Europe, we either unite and thrive or we will be divided and conquered.

    12. Massimo25ore on

      Interferences, hidden and not so hidden, in other countries and continents, something never changes.

      And a few European politicians are actively collaborating to bring those poisonous ideologies to the old continent…

    13. VonBombadier on

      So the same strategy that Russia and China execute, that gas rendered us unable to take any real steps to retaliate because it only takes a couple of EU states to hold everybody up?

      Good choice, proven to work.

    14. > „predominantly non-European“

      By which they clearly imply „non white“. The 2020s are looking increasingly like the 1920s.

    15. GrandAdmiralSnackbar on

      At what point do we decide to eliminate all major sources of foreign influence by banning all major foreign platforms they (ab)use like Youtube and Tiktok?

    16. goldstarflag on

      In response the EU should support the independence movements in California and New York.

    17. TheoremaEgregium on

      The Overton Window just needs to shift a liiittle bit more and we’ll discuss the pros and cons of „regime change“ in Europe.

    18. ahernandez50 on

      No surprise there, MAGA is financed by russia from the beginning. All this is russia crafting US foreign policy, in case anyone had any doubt.

    19. ahernandez50 on

      the question is why the fuck are Europeans not getting their shit together so they can finally give a huge FUCK OFF to vance and the other russian puppets.

    20. FredditJaggit on

      I fucking knew they were gonna go ahead with that. This rotten administration, controlled by putin sock puppets, are really going for a pincer move.

      Democracy, no matter how messy, should not be traded for empty promises by autocrats.

    21. there are 20-40% gullible people at the bottom of the pyramid everywhere to manipulate, but can not be counted on 100% that they will follow the daily propaganda on social media, so that the political majority necessary can not be achieved in short term as there are different systems in place to prevent populism winning hard in every major european economy!

    22. MercantileReptile on

      Would be only fair to repay the favour. By encouraging and supporting resistance – the kind that gets fascists overthrown.

      Also, these people don’t learn:

      >The security strategy largely addresses China as an economic challenge, saying Washington will “rebalance America’s economic relationship with China, prioritising reciprocity and fairness to restore American economic independence”.

      Having their rear handed to them during the summer was not enough, nor was having to quietly reverse tariffs. From the geniuses who did not realise you can’t „onshore“ coffee.

    23. No_Vermicelli9543 on

      Well guess who is now cooperating with the US and Russia friendly right wing ? EPP the largest block of the parliament

    24. TheBearYehudi on

      Europe, please continue to stay united in the face against U.S. hegemony on your continent.

    25. pureDDefiance on

      That’s as clear a call as your going to get. America is an enemy now. They seek to subvert and destroy Europe just as surely as Russia does. Authoritarians cannot tolerate successful democracies

      Europe needs to arm up and defend itself, first and foremost by blocking US social networks and media.

    26. Drumbelgalf on

      Aka hostile covert actions and planned election interference.

      We should throw out all US institutions from the EU as measure of national security.
