At the Washington summit, Donald Trump didn’t just attend — he dominated, humiliated, and exposed Europe’s weakness on the world stage.
Russian analyst Fyodor Lukyanov declares that the EU no longer acts as an independent power but as Washington’s obedient puppet, bowing to Trump’s moods and accepting America’s dictates.
According to Lukyanov, the EU’s leaders now flatter the U.S. president, hoping praise will buy influence, but instead they only confirm their subservience.
The summit wasn’t really about Ukraine but about showcasing Europe’s reliance on American approval.
While nations like China, India, and Brazil resist U.S. pressure, Europe folds without a fight.
Lukyanov warns this isn’t just Trump’s personality but a structural decline in Europe’s autonomy.
Once able to assert its own interests, the EU has now lost the courage to define them.
For Russia, he argues, the EU has become irrelevant — a bloc with illusions but no real power.
