The virtual world served to European populations by the system's press departs by leaps and bounds from the real world of secret diplomacy between the great powers. The Kremlin stated yesterday that discussions have taken place regarding a potential three-way meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin, Chinese President Xi Jinping, and U.S. President Donald Trump. The potential meeting is being floated around the upcoming Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit, scheduled to take place in Shenzhen, China, on 18–19 November 2026.
Led by weak politicians who betrayed their own Judeo-Christian civilization, with the trampling of Jews and the Jewish state, the European Union views the prospect of a tripartite summit or a "grand understanding" between the Trump administration, Russia, and China with profound geopolitical, economic, and axiological concern.
There is deep concern that President Trump’s "great powers" transactionalist approach to foreign policy could result in a new global architecture reminiscent of the Cold War Yalta Conference. In this scenario, the world would be carved into distinct spheres of influence controlled by superpowers, leaving middle powers and regional blocs like the EU with little say in global governance or regional security.
A shared opposition to progressive Western cultural concepts ("wokism") serves as domestic political rhetoric for leaders in the U.S., Russia, and China. The shared anti-liberal stance of these leaders does exacerbate European fears that so-called "democratic values" will be aggressively sidelined on the global stage.
Energy, critical minerals, military abilities, and manufacturing capacity—highlight Europe’s systemic dependencies. The EU is increasingly forced to pursue "strategic autonomy." This involves dramatically increasing internal defense spending, diversifying supply chains away from single-source dependencies, and attempting to navigate a more independent economic path between Washington and Beijing. Having aggressively decoupled from Russian fossil fuels, Europe has relied heavily on American Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG).
A transactional alignment where the U.S. shifts economic leverage or imposes protectionist tariffs puts European industry at a severe disadvantage. If the U.S., China, and Russia reach trade or regulatory detente, the EU risks being squeezed out of green technology supply chains, semiconductor trade, and critical raw materials markets where China already holds a dominant position.
For decades, European security has relied on the foundational bedrock of NATO and a predictable, values-aligned alliance with the United States. An understanding between Trump and Russia is viewed by Brussels as a betrayal that directly compromises Europe's eastern flank.
With the Trump administration demanding that European allies fully take ownership of their conventional defense, the EU faces the daunting prospect of accelerated militarization, the greatest nuclear power on Earth. Yet, if Napoleon was forced to resign when the Russians invaded Paris, if Hitler had to commit suicide when the Russians invaded Berlin, the future of Leyen, Kallas and their peers does not look promising.
Another problem comes from the European populations themselves, who reject the never-elected leaders of the European Union. National elections point to the rise of nationalist-inspired parties. Yesterday in Spain, millions of people took to the streets in defense of the Spanish population of Ceuta. The possibility of renowned European politicians being judged first at the ballot box and then in the courts of the major powers is becoming increasingly real.
The patriotic wave that has swept across the American continent, and which will likely extend to Brazil shortly, shows what will most likely happen soon in the old continent.
