A pro-Russian US president
There is a key moment in the historic and shameful two-on-one between Trump and Vance and Zelensky, when the Ukrainian president warns them that they do not feel the danger from Russia now because the United States is separated from the war by an ocean, but that he will know how to tell them in the future. That is when Trump raises his finger and looks at her to answer: "You don't know that, don't tell us what we will hear." Zelensky is warning them of the danger of playing Putin's game, and Trump does not tolerate anyone who dares to correct him in public, and even less so if it is to stir up trouble by pointing out the weakest and most incredible point of his plan: a president of the United States humiliating the president of a country invaded by Russia. That is why Trump then drops the bomb of World War III.
In the change of world order that we have been witnessing at digital speed since Trump took office 40 days ago, the scene in the Oval Office represents the day when the US president embraced the strategy of the Russian president, declared him rehabilitated and told Europe that he would do it, while Europe is still full of bases and troops.
Would anything have changed if Zelensky had done like Macron (laughing at Trump's jokes for making him feel smart) or like Starmer (taking out the envelope with the letter from King Charles of England to make him feel important) and had not allowed himself to be led into the terrain dominated by the Abusans? It doesn't seem like it. Trump has a purpose, America first, and that means coming to terms with the strongest of the class. The rest of us are considered an ungrateful nuisance, even if this means that Trump is playing the dystopian role of a pro-Russian American president.
