Washington is unhappy that some European arms programs limit U.S. participation.
U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau on Wednesday slammed European NATO allies for prioritizing their own defense industry over American arms suppliers, according to three NATO diplomats.
The intervention came during Wednesday’s meeting of NATO foreign ministers — which was skipped by Landau’s boss Marco Rubio.
Landau, a longtime NATO skeptic who spoke first at the closed-door meeting, told ministers not to “bully” his country’s defense firms out of participating in Europe’s rearmament.
slammed
I was about to praise the use of the word berates but then I read on…
Just wait until the post-tariff trade deals start hitting in a year or two.
America doesn’t have any idea yet the scope of disaster that Donald has created, and the worst part is that he and the other billionaires are insulated from it.
Insulated? Profiting off every move more like.
When is US going to start buying Eurofighter or Leopard 2 then?
It’s like they’re not trusting the US for the defence of their sovereignty. That’s weird. I wonder why.

Maybe that’s because we pissed everybody off.
all part of putins plan, is to isolate the US.
Divide et impera. He does that all over Europe, too, and has been doing it for decades. The USA is the main enemy though, and he already conquered that, Europe was always the prize.
Now who could’ve seen that one coming.
Womp womp.
European here. Good. Our elected officials are not yet so stupid as to think that stupid man has any actual sense.
Tarriftopia complaining about “protectionist and exclusionary policies that bully American companies out of the market” is amazing.
The US just needs to pull itself up by the bootstraps and keep applying to more countries to land a contract.
They literally cannot even imagine the idea that their own actions have consequences. Watching these brainless fucks mesmerize so many people around me is absolutely terrifying.
And whether you intended that strictly as sarcasm or not - you’re not wrong… We really do need to just sort our shit out as a country already. But there’s still some stubborn idiots like me that refuse to give up. Will it be enough to even give us a chance? I dunno
Yep, America doesn’t like ‘hand outs’ anyway. So they’re honestly doing them a favor.
But you see, we don’t have to earn it - y’all do! Or something. Fuck if I know…
The EU is buying a ton of American weapons though?
Why didn’t Europe protect me from the consequences of my own actions?
Washington is unhappy that some European arms programs limit U.S. participation.
Ok, we can make it all arms programs.
Let’s.
Looks like a smug fuck.
Dear USA,
Womp womp.
Sincerely,
Everywhere Else.
