Vance’s message is simple: drink the Maga Kool-Aid or you’re on your own
US vice-president lectured European leaders on domestic affairs, barely mentioning Russia or Ukraine, in speech that shocked those present
JD Vance doesn’t just expect the UK and Europe to swallow Donald Trump’s peace plan for Ukraine. He wants them to drink the Maga Kool-Aid.
The generals and politicians at the Munich Security Conference were left astonished by the US vice-president’s speech, which was short on security but very long on ideology.
Russia, the war in Ukraine, and even defence spending merited only a passing mention.
Instead, Mr Vance took aim at Europe and the UK, firing a broadside over immigration, establishment elites and perceived backsliding on free speech.
According to the vice-president, the real threat to Europe is not Vladimir Putin but largely Muslim asylum seekers.
