Its save to say but Trump lost it and so did most of the official sector of the US. As some european who was in the US already multiple times this feels like a pre stage to civil war fueled by gICEstapo. Sad to see …

this is a reminder that referendums can really throw all your plans into the bin as a politician. (site note: referendum outcome was positive for the public, not for politics ;) )

Europe must not allow itself to be divided, neither by forces from within nor from without.
Europe needs a European patriotism, a feeling – a certainty – of belonging together, of rooting for each other.

Which is a nice diplomatic effort but at the end fragile since the mood of one person can throw it all in the bin.
In Davos, I met with a bipartisan delegation from the United States Congress.
We discussed our shared efforts to achieve a just and lasting peace in Ukraine.

So, has NATO now officially ended?
![NEW: @potus letter to @jonasgahrstore links @NobelPrize to Greenland, reiterates threats, and is forwarded by the NSC staff to multiple European ambassadors in Washington. I obtained the text from multiple officials:
Dear Ambassador:
President Trump has asked that the following message, shared with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, be forwarded to your [named head of government/state]
“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hbpefio3f5csc44msmbgioxz/bafkreie7itpptx3xbxhpsnlaqmwk752h7pcrion5ija2apksljtax2adx4@jpeg)
