EU in total disarray after key nations snub meeting demanded by Germany!
BRUSSELS, Belgium (PNN) - November 13, 2016 - The EU is in total disarray if not outright panic after calling an emergency meeting regarding Donald Trump.
Amusingly, the Fascist United Kingdom, France and Hungary snubbed the meeting; and over the weekend Donald Trump met with Nigel Farage, poking a fiery stick right in the EU’s eyes.
Trump’s presidency is off to a great start.
Britain and France on Sunday night snubbed a contentious EU emergency meeting to align the bloc’s approach to Donald Trump’s election, exposing rifts in Europe over the Fascist Police States of Amerika vote.
Hailed by diplomats as a chance to “send a signal of what the EU expects” from Trump, the plan fell into disarray after foreign ministers from the bloc’s two main military powers declined to attend the gathering demanded by Berlin and Brussels.
On the weekend Trump met Nigel Farage, the populist Brexit campaigner who has become the first foreign politician to meet the future FPSA president. Carl Bildt, the former Swedish prime minister, tweeted, “If Trump wanted to look statesmanlike to Europe, receiving Farage was probably the worst thing he could [do].”
British foreign secretary Boris Johnson dropped out of the Brussels meeting, with officials arguing that it created an air of panic, while French foreign minister Jean-Marc Ayrault opted to stay in Paris to meet the new UN secretary-general. Hungary’s foreign minister boycotted the meeting, labeling the response from some EU leaders as “hysterical”.
Johnson’s refusal to attend will add to an already difficult relationship with his German counterpart Frank-Walter Steinmeier, who has told colleagues that he cannot bear to be in the same room as the British foreign secretary.
Other European leaders have openly criticized the incoming president. European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker last week accused Trump of ignorance. “We must teach the president-elect what Europe is and how it works. I believe we’ll have two years of wasted time while Trump tours a world he doesn’t know.”
