‘Donald Trump wants to bully, dominate Europe’ – International Relations Neutrality Studies researcher Pascal Lottaz

Donald Trump wants to bully, dominate Europe: the humiliated left with no other choice but to suck up even harder.' – International Relations Neutrality Studies researcher Pascal Lottaz.

In the latest episode of Sanchez Effect, we delve into the turbulent waters of US-European relations. Our guest, Kyoto University associate professor Pascal Lottaz reveals that Trump can sense weakness from miles away and has zero respect for it – something European leaders have unwittingly showcased through their relentless pilgrimages to Washington. Meanwhile, Russia and China play a different game, exuding strength that keeps Trump guessing and strategizing against them in other ways. Mr Lottaz believes Trump’s ‘Board of Peace’ is an attempt to crown himself king, manipulate other leaders and assert dominance – but Moscow and Beijing are not ones to sit on the sidelines and be bossed around.

Mr Lottaz predicts a “brutal awakening” for Europe, which bet on the wrong horse and will soon discover the true source of its threats – hint: it’s not Russia. As Europe now attempts to engage in talks with Moscow, is this a genuine shift or just another ploy to manipulate Trump? Tune in for the full insightful interview, only here on RT!
