BRUSSELS — United States arms-makers are being frozen out of the European Union’s massive new defense spending plan, which aims to splash the cash for EU and allied countries, according to defense spending plans released Wednesday.
Also left out — for now — is the United Kingdom.
Yup, so many of my fellow Americans simply don’t understand literally anything about diplomacy and soft power. No concept of the give and take, fully fail to understand that we’ve burned allies and simply won’t be invited to the table as often if at all.
The complete abandonment of 100+ years of building soft and hard power globally has certainly been a wild choice.
