52 h. ago Trump’s style of petty domination was in full display with Zelenskyy | Moira Donegan

This is the predicament now facing the European Union.After Donald Trump’s appalling treatment of Volodymyr Zelenskyy in full view of the watching world on Friday night, all agree that the US president’s betrayal of Ukraine, sickening embrace of Russia and his blunt demand that Europe henceforth defend itself represent just such an extraordinary challenge, and one that must be swiftly addressed.
