Summary
U.S. officials have warned European allies against excluding American defense firms from EU weapons tenders, amid new EU proposals to boost domestic arms production.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio emphasized U.S. concerns in recent meetings, citing potential negative repercussions if U.S. companies are sidelined.
The EU’s €150 billion ReArm Europe plan aims to reduce reliance on foreign suppliers as Trump signals reduced U.S. NATO engagement.
Washington sees the move as conflicting with its goal of selling arms abroad. Tensions highlight diverging transatlantic defense priorities under Trump’s leadership.
The amount of mixed signals coming from this administration is insane.
Like you want to tariff us but if we fight back you say nah fam not like that.
America should be shunned out of society and can make deals with Russia and North Korea.
It’s about time people saw America for the bullies they are and sever ties with them.
Cunts.
It is logical if you accept that america has a fascist government. That is how fascism works, put pressure on other countries, bully them and if they do not comply you can point to them for politcal gain. After a while of “warning” and pretending that the other countries are enemies (all so your population gets riled up) you can start wars.
No, seems pretty straightforward. It’s simply “we’ll tariff-whip you into submission and make you buy our shit”
AKA “fuck around”
