Fundamental rift between US and EU opens up in Munich (www.dw.com)

At the Munich Security Conference, the "shared values" so frequently invoked by Europeans were called into question by US Vice President JD Vance. So do the US and Europe still speak the same language?

What point are you trying to make here?

Are you saying that the US has a reasonable basis upon which to undermine diplomatic ties with Germany? If so, what is that basis and how does it outweigh the benefits of continued partnership?

US should not be disrespecting our allies esp not countries like MX and CA
Germany specifically but other EU counties could not align on Ukraine issue for the longest time. I don't think EU has capability to jack shit about US behavior. That's concerning in of itself.
If EU thinks that they can play like a superpower they will need to prove something like that the old school way. Like winning the war in Ukraine... or successful defense of Greenland if this clown time line gets extra retarded.
EU gonna need do the thing and so far all we see is the same tired finger wagging bullshit. It is tiring.
At the rate this shit is going, AfD wins and flips Germany into alliance with Russia
