On Taras Bilka’s channel, recent political events were discussed, focusing on Donald Trump’s speech before the US Congress after returning to the presidency. The author notes that such addresses not only summarize achievements but also outline the political strategy for years ahead.
The Western reaction to the war in Ukraine is examined: after an unofficial summit in London, stocks of European defense companies, especially those that supply equipment to Ukraine, surged significantly. Despite talk of ceasing US military aid to Ukraine, there are currently no official moves in this direction. European arms producers are boosting cooperation and increasing defense potential, particularly in Germany and other leading EU nations.
The analysis highlights Trump’s rhetoric: at the congressional address, he paid little attention to Ukraine, instead raising the topic of Greenland’s future and calling for a referendum, echoing his previous offer to Denmark to purchase the territory. Greenland’s significance lies in its resources and strategic position.
Also discussed is the US proposal for tough measures against protesting students—a signal of increasing authoritarian tendencies and a fear of the democratic precedents set by Ukraine.
In conclusion, the author stresses the importance of critical news analysis, the strengthening of Europe’s defense strategy, and caution regarding future political changes in the US.
