Globalist figures are now raging against Donald Trump’s statements that Ukraine’s leader Volodymyr Zelensky is a dictator and that Ukraine is to blame for the war against Russia.
One of the outraged is former Swedish Prime Minister Carl Bildt, who calls Trump “dangerous”, “unbalanced” and “a savage in the White House”.
The US president recently said that Ukraine “should have never started it (the war)” and should have sought a diplomatic solution three years ago. He also accused Zelensky of being a “dictator” who stays in office even though his term is over, does not allow elections – and also stated that support for Ukraine’s leader is non-existent.
The general narrative of the Western bloc establishment is that Russian President Vladimir Putin is the only dictator in this context. The fact that the foremost political leader of the Western Bloc in the form of the US President is now turning the argument around and saying that it is Western-backed Ukraine that is ruled by a totalitarian and undemocratic leader has therefore caused chaos in the European establishment.
Former Swedish Prime Minister Carl Bildt, who sits on the board of the influential US think tank European Council of Foreign Relations, is among those condemning Trump’s comments.
– What he says is wrong, it’s distorted and it’s dangerous, Bildt thunders.
– It shows that he is a savage in the White House. He is unbalanced and he is obviously angry, and then he can say anything without it having any relation to the facts and reality, he argues.
President Trump has gone wild. His vicious attack on @ZelenskyyUa and is full-Putin, and where policy heads after this is anyone’s guess. Anything can happen. Now must step up support to – and probably start to discuss how to de-risk aspects of their… pic.twitter.com/rbj4CTTswX

“Putin told him that”
Bildt, who is also a member of the Trilateral Commission power network and has attended both the shadowy Bilderberg Group meetings and Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum, then goes on to share a conspiracy theory in which he believes that the US President probably gets his directives from Russia and that he says what Putin wants him to say.
– My thesis is that Putin told him that… Putin tells Trump and then Trump tells the world.
No evidence for the speculation is presented – but Bildt insists that “Putin couldn’t have said it better” and that “the Kremlin is cheering” Trump’s comments.
Kristersson: Will “maximize support for Ukraine”
After it became clear that Trump wants to try to broker peace – by holding talks with Russia, rather than the EU and Ukraine, there has been a near panic among EU leaders.
This week alone, two “emergency” meetings have taken place at the request of French President Emmanuel Macron – and more are planned for the future.
– Maximizing support for Ukraine immediately is the most important thing, and being Ukraine’s voice to the rest of the world, says Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson (M).
