“Every time Trump or members of his administration have lashed out at Europe, including Ukraine, Europeans have absorbed the blow with a forced smile and bent over backwards to flatter the White House.” (…)

The undermining of Europe has existed for a long while now actually; let’s say since after the construction of the Berlin wall.
