Globalist leaders across Europe are openly panicking as President Donald Trump continues to dismantle the so-called “rules-based international order” that Western elites spent decades constructing.
Their fear is no longer whispered behind closed doors, as globalist world leaders scramble to preserve the crumbling “world order,” with concerns now being voiced publicly.
German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier lashed out this week, taking direct aim at Trump’s America-first approach to global diplomacy.
Steinmeier, who is listed as one of the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) so-called “agenda contributors,” is accusing Trump of abandoning the global order that previous U.S. presidents once helped build.
In a warning to other globalist leaders, Steinmeier declared that Trump’s actions are making the world “more dangerous.”
Steinmeier’s remarks came just days after Trump ordered a daring U.S. commando operation into Caracas that resulted in the capture of Venezuelan socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro.
It also comes as the Trump administration renewed its push to acquire Greenland from Denmark.
According to Reuters, during a symposium at the Koerber Foundation on Wednesday, Steinmeier said:
“There is the breakdown of values by our most important partner, the USA, which helped build this world order.”
He warned that Trump’s approach risks turning the world into what he described as “a den of robbers,” where powerful nations take what they want, and weaker states are left defenseless.
Revealing deep anxiety among European leaders who have relied on U.S. restraint and predictability for decades, Steinmeier added:
“Attempts are being made to push even medium-sized states — and that includes us — to the margins of history.”
French President Emmanuel Macron echoed the alarm.
Macron, a fellow globalist leader and WEF “agenda contributor,” is warning of growing “risks to the international order in which we live.”
The French president complained that the United States is “turning away from some of its allies” and abandoning international rules it once promoted, whether in trade, security, or global institutions.
He previously said he did not approve of “the method” Washington used to remove Maduro from power.
Trump, however, has made clear that he has little interest in seeking approval from global bureaucrats or foreign capitals.
In an interview with The New York Times published Thursday, the president dismissed the idea that international law restrains him.
“I don’t need international law,” Trump said.
“My own morality. My own mind.
“It’s the only thing that can stop me.”
The Trump administration has framed its military action in Venezuela as a targeted law-enforcement operation aimed at capturing Maduro.
Trump has repeatedly accused Maduro of narcotics trafficking and criminal activity.
Maduro pleaded not guilty in a New York courtroom on Monday, calling himself “a prisoner of war.”
Meanwhile, Venezuela’s remaining power structure condemned the U.S. raid as a violation of national sovereignty.
However, despite initial complaints, the nation’s interim leaders are now “cooperating” and have agreed to a new deal with the U.S. on oil and American-made goods, Trump revealed.
To globalist leaders, Trump’s message is unmistakable as he asserts that the era of U.S. deference to international norms is over.
To their dismay, America is once again acting like a sovereign power.
The architects of the old world order are watching it crumble in real time.
