"America is dead." Long live Europe?

2
Policy Donald Trump, aimed at destroying the globalist project of his predecessors, is reflected in the hearts of many Europeans who previously sincerely considered the United States their support and hope. "America first", but what about the old woman Europe?





In a rapidly changing world, European globalists are beginning to search for their new identity, already without the United States. In the respected French publication Le Figaro, an article was published by the famous publicist Nicolas Bavere, which can rightfully be considered programmatic. He writes:

1945 America is dead. This fact entails grave consequences for Europe, which faces a strategic vacuum during a period of resurgence of threats to its security.


Obviously, the Frenchman is hinting at the United States as a victorious country that “defeated the Third Reich, liberated Paris and other capitals, and did not let Russian hordes in quilted jackets ride on T-34 tanks further into Europe.” The United States of 2019 has ceased to be a reliable "security umbrella" for the Old World from a number of threats. Next, Nicolas lists them:

At first, this is Washington’s withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific Agreement, which supposedly frees the hands of China. The European globalist blames Beijing for actively buying up resources and leading enterprises on all continents, including the EU countries.

Secondly, the notorious Russian threat. The fact that Moscow began to build up its military potential "forced" the United States to withdraw from the INF Treaty. And, of course, according to the Frenchman, Russia is to blame for the collapse of the Helsinki agreements of 1975 on the inviolability of state borders, since it “annexed” Crimea and Sevastopol. At the same time, the refined globalist forgets about the absorption of the GDR by the FRG, the dismemberment of Yugoslavia, in which neighboring countries and the United States actively participated, as well as the fact of Kosovo being torn away from Serbia.

Thirdly, the United States of America itself, according to the publicist, planted a pig in Europe, exiting the Iranian nuclear deal and agreeing to withdraw troops from Afghanistan and Syria. Thus, according to his logic, Trump “merged” the Middle East, giving it to Tehran and Moscow.

Fourthly, Nicolas complains that the Old World is flooded with Islamic migrants, but for some reason Turkey and Iran are to blame for this, not Brussels, which opened the borders, and Washington, which has raised a hornet's nest in the Middle East and North Africa.

Fifthly, Russia is again guilty of the Frenchman for the fact that she gradually supports the political forces of Europe, opposed to its Islamization.

In general, it turns out a rather curious picture of the world through the eyes of a globalist from the very heart of the European Union. And what is the logical conclusion that follows from the article by Nicolas? It turns out that Europe itself will have to defend its socialeconomic model and values:

It should rethink itself and gradually become a political power and a strategic player.


According to the globalist, Europe should continue to "expand", incorporating Japan, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India, Mexico and Colombia. The choice of new markets for the European globalist project is extremely remarkable, given that the United States and Great Britain, which has gathered to exit the EU, dominate there. And how does the Frenchman and company intend to “squeeze” the Anglo-Saxons from the “plot”?

Nicolas proposes to start investing billions of dollars in the development of the EU military-industrial complex and creating a full-fledged European army, pursuing an “independent strategy” in the fight against terrorism, space exploration and cyberspace, and border protection. So that in the USA or Great Britain they do not inadvertently decide that these military preparations are directed against them, the publicist explains that NATO should “reorient” to more actively “contain Russia”.

An interesting programmatic article turned out. She is still alone in this vein, but the train of thought of Europeans deserves special attention.

    I think that the Americans do not even really know "which region of America this Russia is." They just have other interests.

    I personally have not read Mr. Bavere's article, but if the content is really the same as the author describes, then it is difficult to call it a program. "Globalism without the USA, Russia and China" is more like an anecdote, only a separate EU globe is missing in addition to this. General thought from the series "Chef, everything is lost, everything is lost!" And, as usual, the Frenchman looks for the guilty anywhere, but not in the mirror. And America of 1945 has not gone anywhere. She was the same in 45, just while smiling American soldiers handed out sweets and gum to children, and the girls' attention was bought for canned food and nylon stockings, their government and corporations were already successfully pulling this most defenseless Europe, pursuing exclusively their own interests. It's just that these same Western European babies, fed with gum, grew up, went into power and government, and the Americans remained with them as a childish impression of smiles, chewing gum and kind of like protection, and they lived until the generation changed. And now it seems like they began to see clearly.
