Dumber than a box of rocks:
“they have a lot to lose if they stop standing by the liberal democracies of Europe.”
After days of EU officials essentially begging Washington to give the bloc a seat at the table in talks with Russia to end the Ukraine war, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock has warned the US that its actions could severely damage relations with Europe.
She urged for the European Union to put more pressure on Washington, and coupled the statement with a warning of what will happen if “liberal democracies” can’t be supported. This is after President Trump has blasted Ukraine and the Zelensky government for refusing to hold elections or achieve peace with Moscow.
“We are increasing the pressure on the Americans” to signal “that they have a lot to lose if they stop standing by the liberal democracies of Europe,” she said Friday during a campaign event near Berlin.

Insulting someone is not a crime, and criminalizing speech is going to put real strain on European-US relationships.

This is Orwellian, and everyone in Europe and the US must reject this lunacy. https://t.co/WZSifyDWMr
