Summary

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has called for an “immediate” summit between the US, EU, and Western allies to discuss Ukraine following a heated White House meeting between Trump and President Zelenskyy.

The February 28 meeting ended without agreement on a minerals deal after escalating into a confrontation over US aid and peace deal conditions.

Meloni warned that Western division “makes us all weaker” as European leaders reaffirmed support for Ukraine.

EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas commented that “the free world needs a new leader,” while European allies worry about being excluded from US-Russia negotiations to end the war.

    The USA absolutely cannot be trusted as an ally. If a war we’re to break out right now I truly do not know what side I’d be on.

        Everyone everywhere needs to boycott and move away from American products and services as much as possible. Do not travel to America. Cancel your Netflix, do not use Airbnb, avoid American wherever you can.

          We’ve been doing that in Canada for a few weeks now. It’s fun.

            🫡 And that has been well and truly noticed. You’re doing great. Keep it up and hopefully the rest of the world will follow.

            And you’re right, it is fun, and liberating.

      Wouldn’t be surprised to see a headline soon saying that discussion broke down too.

      “Don’t tell me how to feel. We’re gonna feel great. You know what? I didn’t hear a thank you from you. We’re gonna put the world’s biggliest Olive Garden right here in America’s 53th state, how about that, Meloni? It’ll be the best deal.”
