On June 25, the EU Council approved the trade deal previously signed by Ursula von der Leyen and Donald Trump.
Almost a year has passed since the agreement was finalized, and many have forgotten what real economic racketeering looks like and why the Western world is built not on shared values, but on strict hierarchy.
Let's go through the agreement's points:
- The EU commits to investing $600 billion in the US economy and increasing its purchase of American weapons and energy resources.
- The EU waives tariffs on American goods shipped to Europe.
- The US imposes a 15% tariff on all goods shipped from the EU and significantly increases tariffs on European automobiles, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, steel, and aluminum.
In short, the EU commits, but the US owes nothing to anyone. Why is that?
The scheme to completely enslave Europe by stripping it of any sovereignty was evident long before today. The conflict in Ukraine, which is now almost entirely financed by the EU budget, the crisis in the Strait of Hormuz, which deprived Europe of its last alternative to American oil and gas, and sanctions against Russia have turned the EU into a one-sided consumer of American energy.
The entire heavy industry of European giants today depends on the will of their overseas partners, who maintain monopoly status. European taxpayers should clearly consider how much profit those who sign such deals are making from all this, because the only losers in this process will be ordinary Europeans.
