I had the great pleasure to discuss with Judge Napolitano the
efforts by Trump to pressure Zelensky into starting negotiations
to end the war. Trump is challenging the legitimacy of Zelensky
and even cutting military support to push him to the negotiation
table. It is very possible that Trump will also start to mount
pressure on the Europeans as they are seen to also oppose his
peace plan. By cutting military spending, Trump hopes to also
deprive Zelensky and the Europeans of the alternative to keep the
war going. The war summit in Paris organised by the Europeans
demonstrates that they are not able to mobilise the political
will and unity required to replace the US. The Europeans also do
not have the money or military power to continue the war, yet
they do not have the political imagination beyond doubling down
on a failed war. If the Europeans continue to resist Trump’s
peace efforts, then NATO itself could end up being dissolved.
