Six years ago his audience laughed, this year they were silent
In his speech with the United Nations, Donald Trump was the clearest exhibition in the most raw form of the way of seeing the world.
According to its supporters, it will be seen as Trumpism plug; Trumpism has not been opened to critics.
For almost an hour, he targeted his opponents and ideas and chose them one by one as he traveled the world. He started at home, praised the United States and himself. He said that the United States lived throughout the Golden Age and repeated his claim that he had ended seven wars personally, and he deserved the Nobel Peace Prize.
But then the President entered the landlords. The UN said he didn’t help making peace. He questioned the purpose of the organization, said that he had a tremendous potential but did not comply with it. The only thing he claimed was to write strongly expressed letters that he did not follow. Empty words said he didn’t finish wars.
He also attacked the UN for the help of asylum seekers who hoped to enter the United States and said, “The UN stopped invasions, did not create and finance them.” The president even attacked the UN for a broken escalator and Teleprompter that broke his visit and speech.
It has a meaning at some level. Many analysts question their effectiveness by pointing to Gridlock in the Security Council and the body’s unresponsive bureaucracy, especially in the UN’s resolution of the conflict these days.
However, at another level, Trump can be seen as a reason and symptom of the UN lack of activity; Because he believes that global crises are solved by strong men, such as the best way to meet and make agreements, without using multilateral bodies like the UN to solve collective solutions. Under Trump, the United States withdrew most of the UN financing and forced the body to interrupt its humanitarian work in the world.
Trump, perhaps the greatest criticism for European allies, attacked the continent to invest in renewable energy and opened his borders to migrate.
“Europe is having a serious problem. As no one has seen before, it was invaded by the power of illegal aliens … Both immigration and suicide energy ideas will be the death of Western Europe.”
Climate change claimed that it had audible paleness, “the world’s greatest work so far” and the timber of European countries compared to fossil fuels. In particular, the British government criticized the North Sea for imposing a new tax on oil.
“If you don’t move away from the green energy deception, your country will fail,” he said.
“I love Europe. I love the European people. And I hate to see that it is devastated with energy and migration. This double -tailed monster destroys everything after it … You want to be politically right and you destroy your heritage.”
Pay attention to the last point. During the state visit to England last week, the President of the “English -speaking World” reflects the importance of defending what he calls.
Mr Trump’s European criticism has a cultural advantage, he believes that uncontrolled migration threatens what Europe sees as a Jewish Christian heritage. For nothing, Trump is not the leader of a administration that wears his religion firmly on his arm. “Let’s maintain religious freedom,” the UN said, “Today, the most persecuted religion on the planet – it is called Christianity.”
At a certain policy point, Trump gave the most important warning about Russia’s war in Ukraine. President Putin’s refusal to end the conflict, “Russia does not look good,” he said. He said he was preparing to “bring a very strong strong tariffs” to end the US bloodshed. However, he said that European countries should stop buying Russian energy, claiming that some of them had done so only two weeks ago.
In practice, Hungary and Slovakia are the only important European buyers of Russian oil. Diplomats say that Mr. Trump is hiding behind it, so both do not have to impose secondary sanctions on India and China, who buys a large amount of cheap Russian energy specified by Trump.
Perhaps Trump’s social media post, which was more important than his speech, claimed that Ukraine could be in a position that would regain all its territory for the first time.
The dismissal of Russia as a “real military force”, not a “paper tiger”, will harm President Putin, who is sensitive to any suggestion that his country is not a global player. Diplomats, this is the last example of Mr. Trump’s journey to a more critical position of Russia.
But one should always deal with Trump’s words with a pinch of salt. In the UN, he was optimistic just a few minutes after he met Zelensky, President of Ukraine.
And he said that Ukraine could recover the region with EU and NATO support; The participation of the US was not mentioned. All the evidence of the last few years is that this is a slow wear war, and that Ukraine will not take back the land from Russia without a great US military support.
So it was Trump that was not diluted; An attack on the defense of America and the nation state, multilation and globalism is a flow of consciousness with suspicious claims.
Six years ago, Trump’s audience in the UN laughed from time to time at his perfect claims; They listened quietly to a great extent this year.
“I’m really good about it,” he said to the world leaders. “Your countries go to hell.”
