European diplomats express concern over Trump foreign policy
European leaders and diplomats have expressed significant exasperation regarding Donald Trump’s foreign policy, noting that his approach appears highly serviceable to the interests of Vladimir Putin.
During a private lunch among diplomatic representatives to NATO in Brussels, an ambassador from a major European nation reportedly described the White House as being occupied by a Russian asset. This sentiment was echoed by other attendees at the gathering.
In Estonia, Marko Mihkelson, chair of the parliament’s foreign affairs committee, was noted as a leading strategic thinker on Russia. The discussions regarding these geopolitical tensions occurred amidst a series of diplomatic engagements in the Baltic nations and following the Yalta European Strategy conference in Kyiv.
