The Problem w/Europe & the UKRAINE RUSSIA WAR - Alexander Mercouris

The speaker discusses growing divisions within Europe over the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and the West's relationship with Russia. While hardliner governments in Western and Northern Europe (like France, Germany, and the Baltics) remain committed to confrontation, other European nations—particularly in Central and Southern Europe (like Hungary, Croatia, Italy, and increasingly Germany)—are starting to push for a diplomatic resolution and restoration of relations with Russia. Economic concerns, especially the loss of cheap Russian energy, are a driving factor behind this shift.

The speaker suggests that if the U.S., particularly under Trump, decides to disengage from the conflict, it will expose and accelerate this split within Europe. Without U.S. support, many European countries may abandon the current strategy and pursue direct negotiations with Russia.

Regarding U.S. personnel changes, the dismissal of National Security Adviser Mike Waltz is seen as a sign that he was misaligned with Trump’s preference for diplomacy over confrontation. While being reassigned as U.S. Ambassador to the UN, Waltz’s suitability for that role is also questioned, given the diplomatic finesse it requires.
