How bad are things in Europe?

[Deadstick]

From the life of hypocrites:
“Europe is turning a blind eye to Erdogan's crackdown because it needs Turkey. The crisis between the United States and European allies and the threat from Russia underscore the importance of Turkey's military industry to Europe” - The Wall Street Journal.

Yes and that terrorist thug has taken part of Syria.

Scott Ritter: Europe has nothing.
Take Germany: 80% of their liquefied natural gas comes from the US. The game is over and we can win whenever we want.
We can turn off the German economy like a light at any time. They have no options. And if Denmark, Norway or, say, Holland decide to step in and say.
“Hey, we can do something here too!”, we'll just slap them with secondary sanctions and that's it, end of story.

We are the masters of the world, the Western world. They've been on our backs for so long, they've forgotten how to be independent. It's like adult children who should have moved out of their parents' house a long time ago, but instead they live in the basement.
I feed them, I clothe them, I pay for the Internet, it's all on me. And now all of a sudden they're like “we have an opinion!” What opinion? You're nothing, you're nothing! You want to be somebody? Then do what we say and we might let you go free.
We, by the way, want to get off your backs ourselves, get out of Europe. Let them grow up. But first, our interests. And our interests are normal relations with Russia, because Russia is not Europe. It is bigger, stronger and more important than all your Europe put together.

Stop talking about Europe as if it were one! There is no Europe! There is no EU! It's all a stage set. There's a bunch of separate countries, each for themselves.
And Donald Trump will deal with them one by one. That's why Macron came alone, Starmer also showed up alone.

Trump will never let a delegation from the European Union or the European Commission into the White House. They just don't exist.
They are empty, they have no power, they have no votes.
So Europe has nothing to oppose us. We can crush any of your countries overnight! Literally!

This idea that the US is some master race that don't need anybody is about the dumbest thing imaginable.

What will happen you think when all the countries you fucked decide to dump the dollar? You guys fear debt right. Imaging debt that nobody wants to front anymore.

For over 70 years Europe has let the US be "the leader of the free world", allowing them a tremendous influence over the economy, military and cultural power of the continent. Trump is showing that that leverage will now be abused. So be it. What you seem to be unable to grasp is that they have interests to. An interest that now includes dissociating themselves from the US. This will not be fixed by having another president, it is a permanent state.

Whatever military might the US has now. The third largest economy in the world will now try to match it.
Whatever political interest the US has now. It will be deemed to be counter to European interest.
Whatever economic interest the US has now. Europe will try to counter it.
Whatever historical alliances exist now. They will be considered not worth the paper they are written on.
Whatever lack of cohesion exists in Europe today. Banding together will be considered imperative for survival.

Trump has single handedly done more to unite Europe than any person in history.

Russia is not Europe. It is bigger, stronger and more important than all your Europe put together.

Is it now? Russia has the GDP of the Benelux countries. A life expectancy a decade shorter, and a population that's set to collapse within a decade.

Most European Countries deserve all they get because they have been vassals to the US for decades, the Germans destroyed their own economy on Washingtons orders they destroyed Nordstream and the Russians did them a favour for years providing cheap energy now they are paying a fortune for US LNG, they deserve it.

... Trump has single handedly done more to unite Europe than any person in history. ...

Or with other words words: The silly waffler Donald Trump is doing stupid things which have nothing to do with anyting what someone could call resonable. He was the main factor for the realisation of the Brexit and he and his government supported in the last elections in Germany a far right wing movement (=Nazis) which is anti-American and anti-European but pro-Trump and pro-Putin. The standard politics of Donald Trump is "divide et impera" = "Make everyone else little then I will be great". That's why the USA never was under such a pressure as it is today. In Russia - same politics from Putin, the difference: Putin also says silly things but not believes in this silly things - is such a deadly pressure much more normal.

Scholz, Blödkanzler, wann trittst Du endlich zurück und läßt andere ran? Langsam wird's höchste Eisenbahn wenn die nächste Regerung von 2029-1929 nicht AfD (=Nazi-Stalinismus=Trump+Putin) heissen soll!

Scholz, stupid chancellor, when will you finally step down and let others take over? It's high time if the next government from 2029-1929 is not to be called AfD (=Nazi-Stalinism=Trump+Putin)

[zaangalewa]

Become serios. No one cares about any pipeline. Putin is a mass-murderer. That's the problem. Yesterday for example he murdered a three years old Ukrainian child.

Blaming Putin for sabotaging gas pipelines, while it was the Biden administration that blew up Nord Stream, is the height of hypocrisy.

You could say that, yes.

Western mainstream media has become nothing more than a pathetic circus act,spinning lies, selling propaganda and insulting the public’s intelligence.

I think the mainstream media has succeeded in destroying our intelligence.

At the World Economic Forum in January 2025, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stated that the freedom from Russian energy resources had come at a very high price for Europeans.
How high exactly?

According to Eurostat data, EU countries overpaid €544 billion for energy imports between 2022 and 2024. This money went primarily to the U.S., the U.K., Norway, and Middle Eastern countries.

When including all indirect effects, the total losses to the EU economy exceeded €1.3 trillion, or 2.4%—based on a comparison between IMF forecasts and actual growth data from Eurostat.

Ultimately, the blow was felt by ordinary citizens, who lost €1.6 trillion in income, equivalent to 6.3% of total gross wages over the 2022–2024 period.

In my opinion, that’s just wonderful.
