Landau stated that the fine was merely the “tip of the iceberg” and accused the EU of damaging its credibility with the U.S. by focusing on policies that he described as against U.S. interests and akin to “civilizational suicide.” These remarks were similar to those in Trump’s recent foreign policy blueprint.
“When these countries wear their NATO hats, they stress that Transatlantic cooperation is crucial for our mutual security. Yet, when wearing their EU hats, they pursue agendas often harmful to U.S. interests and security, including censorship, economic folly/climate fanaticism, open borders, a disregard for national sovereignty/promoting multilateral governance and taxation, and support for Communist Cuba,” he wrote.
“This inconsistency must end,” he continued. “The great nations of Europe can be either our allies in safeguarding the Western civilization we inherited from them or not. But we cannot act as partners while those nations allow the EU’s unelected, undemocratic, unrepresentative bureaucracy in Brussels to follow policies of civilizational self-sabotage.”
Earlier this week, Landau criticized European NATO allies for excluding the U.S. from the bloc’s defense buildup, as POLITICO initially reported.
