I hear from self -proclaimed experts no different than that President Donald Trump is a man who, according to them, hardly has a fully -fledged thinking pattern. That is linked, it is expressed, to his fickle action and that we cannot really count on him as a result.

The media now states everywhere that he supplies weapons to Ukraine and that Europe has to pay for this. The latter is clear. We always have our mouths full, but for convenience, we hide ourselves for our defense behind his broad back. For our defense, if we still had it at all, we indeed leaned for years and years on the benevolence of the Americans. They were prepared, or should you call it so crazy, to always pull the wallet for everything and everyone and, partly, under the pressure of the prevailing few rosy financial situation, pile and perk. Moreover, I think that Trump will certainly have an agenda, where he is piece by piece, sometimes with an adjustment here and there. Do we understand him in Europe and don’t have our beak a little too big?
