Monetary Instances US Editor Ed Luce argues that President Donald Trump is declaring a ‘world energy vacuum’.
United States President Donald Trump sees many European nations as extensions of the Democratic Occasion overseas, and thus his “adversaries”, argues Ed Luce, the US nationwide editor on the Monetary Instances.
Luce tells host Steve Clemons that the string of European leaders “bringing fruits to the volcano” in Washington will be unable to vary Trump’s views on Ukraine or Europe normally. “America now sees the world as a jungle,” he says.
The facility vacuum left by the US will usher in “a harmful time … when you will have the revenge of geopolitics, the return of historical past,” Luce says.
