This week is a betrayal of the longstanding friendly and mutually-beneficial relationship between our two countries. The damage is done, and cannot be undone.

Today, on the 31st anniversary of the Budapest Memorandum with its useless security assurances, we are facing a repeat of history as EU leaders warn of the risk of a peace deal without strong US security guarantees.
Strength is the only true guarantor of peace for the EU.

Putin: ‘Russia is ready to keep fighting until the last Ukrainian dies.’
Western politicians & press: ‘Peace talks have stalled…’
Russia has zero interest in peace. Calling Kremlin demands for Ukrainian surrender ‘peace talks’ is just another way of spreading their propaganda.

Zelenskyy has huge pressure on him, and unbelievable responsibilities and decisions to make... but what he needs more than anything during this time, is the support of Europe and the UK. Steadfast and reliable. He needs to know that if he chooses the hard path, we have his back.

Yet another example of Trump shooting the US in the foot. Our abdication of moral leadership in international institutions like the UN, WHO, G20, and ICC only serves to allow our adversaries the opportunity to expand their influence on the world stage while we suffer.
