Trump Calls Out NATO, Europe on Support for Continuing Their War on Russia in Ukraine
Sept. 19—Sources close to the White House report that President Donald Trump is totally fed up with the NATO European leadership and its attempts to sabotage his efforts to end their losing proxy war against Russia in Ukraine. These sources report that right before he left for an official state visit to one of those nations, Great Britain, Trump fired off a statement posted on the Truth Social media platform that mockingly set terms for his agreement to new sanctions on Russia—a constant demand of NATO and its Ukrainian dictator Volodymyr Zelenskyy—that he knew Europe would never agree to.
"He just took new sanctions off the table, while saying he would impose them if Europe agreed to his terms," said the source. "The Europeans are furious, so furious that they will not acknowledge what Trump said as serious."
Nonetheless, the European Union today tried to appeal to Trump by taking new measures to restrict trade in Russian energy supplies but stopped far short of a total ban. Meanwhile, the EU has dispatched a technical team to Washington to discuss coordination on sanctions and tariffs directed against Russia and China.
Trump’s Statement Sets Conditions for Action
In what he called a “letter … to all NATO nations and, the world,” Trump announced Sept. 14, “I am ready to do major Sanctions on Russia when all NATO Nations have agreed, and started, to do the same thing, and when all NATO Nations STOP BUYING OIL FROM RUSSIA. As you know, NATO’S commitment to WIN has been far less than 100%, and the purchase of Russian Oil, by some, has been shocking! It greatly weakens your negotiating position, and bargaining power, over Russia. Anyway, I am ready to ‘go’ when you are. Just say when?”
Trump also stated that "if NATO put 50% to 100% tariffs on China," the war in Ukraine, which is killing thousands every week, can be ended. “If NATO does as I say, the WAR will end quickly, and all of those lives will be saved! If not, you are just wasting my time, and the time, energy, and money of the United States,” the President declared.
White House Pushback on Sanctions Narrative
"Stupid people, including people in the War Party in the U.S., have been trying to spin what Trump said to say that he is finally coming around to the position that new sanctions are needed," said the source, "but he has never said that. Instead, he has said—and his spokesmen, including [Special Envoy Steve] Witkoff [who has brokered peace discussions with Russian President Vladimir Putin] and Vice President [JD] Vance have said—they are not necessary. The President believes that while Putin argues strongly for his positions, he wants to end the war. The problem is that NATO wants war with Russia and wants the war to continue, and has propped up Zelenskyy, who refuses to recognize that the war has been lost. Europe keeps telling him he could win, but he can't."
"Trump has now sent a warning to the Europeans to stop blocking his peace efforts and stop backing Zelenskyy's refusal to negotiate anything," the source said. "The President was also furious with NATO and the Poles for totally manufacturing this alleged drone attack on Poland and taking it as proof that Putin wants to expand the war. American intelligence rejected that it was an attack and said that if these were indeed Russian drones, it was some kind of mistake most likely caused by jamming their guidance systems. So, Trump says this, and he is denounced by the Poles and the Ukrainians. Now there's evidence that this may have been a 'red flag' incident—that the drones, which carried no explosives, were captured or remodeled Russian craft, launched by the Ukrainians. These mother fuckers are playing around with starting World War III rather than helping Trump end the war."
Trump Signals Shift in U.S. Support for Ukraine
"All they would need to do to help is to say that they will stop sending Ukraine money and weapons if Zelenskyy refuses to negotiate seriously," said the source. "That is what the U.S. is going to do, as the post implies."
"And if the Euro fools were holding out some hope that King Charles and the Royal dog and pony show they prepared for Trump would get him to change his stance, they can forget that, because it did not work," said the source. "Trump was given the full Royal treatment, and there can be no doubting that he has a fascination for the Royals and their traditions. But when he went to meet with the head of His Majesty's government, Sir Keith Starmer, Trump told him that the Brits and their cronies—the Germans and French—should stop meddling in Ukraine and also stop blocking U.S. efforts to secure peace in Gaza. What he was telling the Brits, which must have further freaked them out, was that they are a minor power, who are only important because of their relationship with the United States. Trump said I am your leader, and you had better follow my lead, because I sure as hell aren't going to follow or bow to you."
Trump’s Final Message to European Leaders
"Trump told Starmer that he knows that Europe won't cut off buying Russian energy supplies," the source concluded. "And that's okay with him. But then don't encourage the Ukrainians to keep fighting. Let me work with Putin to end this, even if it might mean the end to Zelenskyy."
