Ruotsi on pieni. Ruotsissa on pienemmÀksi ihmisiÀ kuin Belgiassa, jossa olen tÀllÀ hetkellÀ. Ruotsin GDP on hieman pienempi tai noin 1% EU-totalista GDP. Mutta se todella on katsottu maailmanlaajuisesti. Luulen, ettÀ paljon keskustelua nyt on se, miksi olemme elÀmÀssÀ tÀllÀ hetkellÀ. MeillÀ on niin paljon huolimatta, ettÀ olemme nÀhneet maailmanlaajuisen demokraattisen taistelun.
multilateraaleja organisaatioita, joissa maat toimivat yhdessÀ, joissa he ovat yhdessÀ, ettÀ elÀmme aikana, jolloin oikeus nÀkyy oikeudella. Ja kuka ovat vihreÀt kansainvÀliset takia Viktor Orbanista? HÀn kutsutti ilmaisen demokraattisen demokraattisen kanssa. HÀn on Donald Trumpin takia. HÀn on suosittanut hÀnet monta kertaa. J.D. Vance oli vain Budapestissa, vaikka Iranin maailmassa. HÀn sopii Viktor Orbanin edellisessÀ valmistelussa. HÀn on nÀyttÀnyt kristillisen kansainvÀlisen oikeuden.
But he's also been really useful over the years, his 16 years as prime minister, to Vladimir Putin. He's delayed EU sanction packages against Moscow most recently since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. He's currently blocking a 90 billion euro loan from the EU to Ukraine.
which Kiev said it needs to survive. Here in Brussels and in a lot of European capitals, they won't say it directly, they're not unhappy that Viktor OrbĂĄn is tipped to lose. He's seen as an obstructor in Brussels, not just on Ukraine, but also on migration and more. And there has been continuous concern about the backsliding of the rule of law, the independence of the judiciary, media freedom, LGBTQ+, and women's rights at home.
Ja on myös jotkut, jotka sanovat, ettÀ jos Viktor Orbån menettÀisiin, se olisi niin suuri suunnitelma, ettÀ ehkÀ se olisi yhdistelmÀ enemmÀn Euroopassa, ettÀ ristiriitaisten oikeudet pysyvÀt vÀhemmÀn. Jos katsotaan alueellisia valtoja juuri viime aikoina Franciaan, jossa Marine Le Pen-parti ei tehnyt niin hyvin.
Alussa, jos katsotaan ensimmÀistÀ kertaa, monet eurooppalaiset johtajat loppuun loppuun rauhoittivat ideaa, he todella loppuivat. Mutta Donald Trumpin kontroversioiden toiminta VenÀjÀllÀ viikonloppuun, eikÀ kukaan rauhoita enÀÀ. Denmarkin puheenjohtaja sanoo, ettÀ Donald Trumpin rauhoittaminen Greenlandin unilateraalisti,
have to be taken seriously. She says if the US does go ahead with that, which Donald Trump says he's absolutely determined to do, that, she said, would spell the end of the defence alliance NATO. Now, we know that Donald Trump is not a huge fan of the defence alliance. He's spoken many times about his dislike of Europe's reliance on the United States for defence and security, and he's got promises from European leaders to spend more on their own defence alliance.
Mutta eurooppalaisille he yrittÀvÀt Natoa. He yrittÀvÀt Natoa ja Yhdysvallojen isompi osa turvallisuudesta vuoden 2. maailman lopputuloksen lopputuloksen lopputuloksen lopputuloksen lopputuloksen lopputuloksen
The thing is, what can they do? Well, we had a joint communique issued on Tuesday by six major European powers. The only ones who could decide the future of Greenland would be Greenland itself and Denmark. But Donald Trump isn't listening. Denmark and Greenland have tried repeatedly.
to get a meeting with Marco Rubio, the US Secretary of State, throughout last year. They've tried again, but Donald Trump seems absolutely intent. And the thing is, if we have a look at how European leaders have dealt with Donald Trump since his re-election into office, they tend to try to manage him rather than confront him.
He don't want to risk his ire, and right now they really, really need his buy-in over Ukraine. Because we had a very big meeting, I was there in Paris on Tuesday, talking about future security guarantees for Ukraine to ensure its sovereignty after aggression with Russia ends. And also Europeans are divided. That statement backing Denmark was only signed by six European leaders, so clearly divisions there.
KyllÀ, se oli laitettu viisi puolustajaa. Ne ovat suurin piirtein eurooppalaiset, ja ne olivat tuottaneet muutaman muun puolustajan, jotka kertoisivat tuotantoa seuraavaksi. TÀmÀ puolustus oli tuotannossa Ukrainiin, jossa oli niin paljon eurooppalaisia puolustajia.
But as you say, only six signed that communique. And that goes back to what I was saying about how different European countries are dealing with Donald Trump. Often, if you look particularly at the UK or Italy, safeguarding what they believe are special bilateral relations with Donald Trump. And despite promising to invest in their own defenses, they do still heavily rely on Washington for air capabilities, for example, command and control for intelligence. And Washington knows this full well.
the re-election of Donald Trump marks what's perhaps the most uncertain moment in the history of the NATO military alliance. Well, that is, since the last time he was president. But that was before large-scale warfare returned to Europe with Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, aided militarily and otherwise by North Korea, Iran and China.

NATO is a transatlantic military alliance and it's largely funded by the United States. But America first Donald Trump thinks it's a very bad deal.

With Ukraine on the back foot against Moscow and European security in jeopardy, NATO has got a new chief, Mark Rutter, who's been dubbed the Trump whisperer. In his first major speech in his new job, he's called for NATO members to switch to a wartime mindset and seriously boost defence spending. Can he save NATO by persuading the incoming US president to stay on board?
