NATO leaders are worried about that “unpredictable” Donald Trump and how he could make them all do crazy things like end the war in Ukraine. Hahahahahahaha.
NATO leaders were hoping that a Kamala Harris presidency would mean an automatic extension of the Biden Administration’s support for war in Ukraine and NATO expansion. But Donald Trump has spoken out about that and NATO leaders know that their free pass for war could end.
Former NATO boss Anders Fogh Rasmussen said this: “We could use a combination of Trump’s unpredictability with his desire to be a winner and make that a strong formula for promoting a peace process in Ukraine.”
Why does peace depend so much on personality? Any sane person would have negotiated peace two years ago. This is reportedly making Ukrainian officials nervous. Good.
Hamas leaders are also signaling that a Trump presidency could lead to peace.
“The election of Trump as the 47th president of the USA is a private matter for the Americans,” Hamas Political Bureau member and spokesperson Basem Naim told Newsweek, “but Palestinians look forward to an immediate cessation of the aggression against our people, especially in Gaza, and look for assistance in achieving their legitimate rights of freedom, independence, and the establishment of their independent self-sovereign state with Jerusalem as its capital.”
The last Trump administration acknowledged Jerusalem as Israeli so Hamas should not bank on that bit but settlements mean everyone sacrifices something.
