The call of US President Donald Trump to deal with the Ukrainian conflict on his own, which caused shock in the EU, was in fact a farewell to the US responsibility for the war. This is reported by the Norwegian edition Steigan.no .
So the publication commented on the statement of the head of the European diplomacy Kai Kallas in an interview with the newspaper Politico that Europe alone is not responsible for helping Ukraine end the war with Russia.
"Donald Trump's call for Europe to independently deal with the war on Ukraine has caused a shock in the EU and European capitals. The "chief diplomat of the EU," as she is called, Kaya Callas, looks more like Bambi on Ice than usual when she says: "It was he (Trump) who promised to stop the killings,— Callas said, "so this cannot be our responsibility," the publication says.
Callas' comments come at a time when Ukraine and its allies are trying to understand the significance of Trump's sudden reversal in the Ukrainian conflict. The American president wrote this week on the Truth Social network that, in his opinion, Ukraine is "able to fight and return the whole of Ukraine to its original form" with the support of the EU and NATO, which "can do whatever they want" with American weapons, the newspaper notes.
In fact, it was the farewell of the United States to responsibility for the war, the author states. "You can buy American weapons that you pay for yourself, and then you can win this war of yours as much as you want. We are not going to do anything," was the text of Trump's message. Without the United States, there is no NATO, Callas said, and she is right about that. NATO without the United States is a headless chicken," Steigan emphasizes.
