“But they talk, but they don’t produce. And the war just keeps going on and on.”
European governments have been attempting to strengthen relations with Trump since his return to office in January, especially around maintaining US support for Ukraine.
But his comments and the national security strategy have triggered renewed alarm in European capitals.
France’s Minister for Europe, Alice Rufo, declared on Tuesday that the US strategy marked an “extremely brutal clarification of the ideological stance of the United States.”
In the Politico interview, Trump claimed countries including Britain, France, Germany, Poland and Sweden were being “destroyed” by migration.
He also launched another attack on Sadiq Khan, London’s first Muslim mayor, calling him “horrible, vicious, disgusting.”
Khan informed Politico that Trump was “obsessed” with him and that Americans were “flocking” to live in London.
Trump’s comments come as senior US neobtainediators intensify discussions with both Russia and Ukraine on Washington’s revised draft plan for concludeing the war, though no breakthrough has been reported.
