The European Parliament must have collectively decided to shove their heads in the sand if they believe that slamming the Trump administration for “blackmailing” Ukraine helps their case in any way. Recently, a staggering 442 out of 720 EU lawmakers banded together to denounce any perceived coercion aimed at Ukraine, claiming it was all about ensuring that Zelensky doesn’t fold like a cheap lawn chair under pressure from Russia. In true political fashion, passing such a resolution with 61% in favor gives them a sense of accomplishment, while virtually ignoring the more significant nuances at play.
Responding to criticism was co-chair of the European Conservatives, Nicola Procaccini, who wisely suggested that maybe, just maybe, a strong EU stance could complicate delicate discussions between the U.S. and Russia over ceasefire conditions agreed upon in Jeddah. Of course, this rational thought was swept aside, leaving behind a resolution that smacks of performative politics. Interestingly, less than 14% of European politicians had the backbone to voice any dissent against this anti-American rhetoric. One must wonder what it takes for these lawmakers to recognize that they might be barking up the wrong tree.
Here’s where the EU’s hypocrisy really shines bright like a neon sign in a dark alley. Just last month, during their quest to impose a ceasefire on Israel in Gaza after 140 days of conflict, they had no qualms about openly advocating for peace in that region. One has to ponder how it is that the EU can preach about the need for immediate and unconditional ceasefires in some scenarios, but waves around terms like “blackmail” when it comes to Ukraine. This double standard doesn’t just raise eyebrows; it practically pops the blinds off the windows.

The cherry on top comes from the European Parliament’s assertion that Trump is trying to negotiate a ceasefire and peace agreement without the consent of Ukraine and other European states. Apparently, they’re equating Trump’s attempts to find a resolution with nefarious tactics. But one has to wonder, since when is negotiating peace a form of blackmail? Maybe the EU has a unique definition of the term tailored specifically for transatlantic relations.
As usual, Europe’s sense of entitlement is off the charts. What they really want is for the U.S. to offer ironclad guarantees backing them up in warfare while they sit comfortably across the ocean, hurling rhetoric instead of actual efforts. It comes down to a simple truth: Zelensky’s temper tantrum and the EU’s outrage all boil down to a plea for American intervention that they are not willing to provide themselves. While Trump searches for a path that avoids escalating tensions into a catastrophic world war, the EU continues to undermine American interests with accusations rather than supporting a realistic solution.
The Democrats may be teetering on the edge, but they’re still a force to reckon with. The events of 2025 could tip the scales towards a glorious resurgence for America or doom it to apathy. The stakes are high, and those on the conservative front are all too aware of the battles that lie ahead. As the political arena heats up, maintaining a clear-eyed focus on what truly makes America great remains paramount—especially as some foreign entities seem more interested in scoring political points than ensuring global stability.
