    That is false. The US followed a clearly different strategy before. Yes, it has slowly shifted indpendently from Trump but the outright hostility towards Europe does not serve any US interests. It is entirely self harming for the US. Not investing into European strategic assets is one thing, openly attacking Europe and threatening with annexation of territory of allied nations, making it clear by actions (not merely talking) that one consideres Russia more of an ally than the EU, is an entirely different thing.

        What assertion? Hard to respond to you when you are entirely unspecific. Much of what I wrote were no assertions but simple facts. The US literally threatened to annex territory of a NATO ally for example.

          You see that ‘s’ at the end of ‘assertions’? That means it’s plural.

          My god. This is next level stupid.
