I am personally not that worried about US support for Ukraine being withdrawn the real damage for western security would be if the US would try to obstruct European support for Ukraine after a failed peace proposal. We need answers to a few questions: Does Trump allow weapons sales to Ukraine if others pay for it. Does Trump ban US components from being in European weapons sent to Ukraine. Does Trump try to strong arm European countries into supporting a bad peace. The first of those three are bad but if trump blocks US components we will see a major shift in US/EU+ relations. There are already moves in Europe to de-integrate the European defence industry from the US defence industry because of limits set by the Biden administration. If Europe can't trust US components in it's weapons when carrying out it's national security needs Europe won't by US weapons, at least not the more sophisticated one's. If the US strong arms European countries into supporting a bad peace that will lead to very bad blood with a lot of countries especially countries in Eastern and Northern Europe. This isn't the middle east where Europeans don't give a damn really this is Europe's backyard. Imagine DeGaule telling President Kennedy to hand over Guantanamo to Cuba as part of the Cuban Missile Crisis settlement and to create a buffer state patrolled by Canadians in the Florida Key's

Trump said that at one point he went to see Putin and took him along to use him very much like Putin used his dog to frighten Mrs. Merkel, but Putin actually stood his ground and threw him a fish instead of panicking.

[@adrianwhyatt594]

Instead of withdrawing from NATO, Trump could just reduce American defence spending to the NATO targeted minimum of 2%.

Bolton gives me hope, that as a 34 year old I still have potential

Losing territory and hoping for peace is the best case scenario for Ukraine.

[@thoreberlin]

Europe pays heavily for the US protection with bad terms of trade and by not reacting to protectorist US acts with a trade war. These trillions have to be considered. But it's to complicated for trump.

[@tonabnehmer9407]

exact the US made far more money with the Nato than they have ever spend!

The usa has not the right to go around the world, determining who runs what country

How in HELL did d Donald Trump get voted into the PRESIDENCY?? 🤔 It must have been the PEOPLE!!!! 😮 Bolton is CORRECT on just about every issue!!!! We need more ‘REAL’ leaders like Bolton, with knowledge and common sense…..👍👍👍👍👍

[@JhoJhon-tb6kz]

I hope he did Leave nato because nato commit so much crimes around the world

Where is "The Jackal" when one needs him?😉

[@stephenadenu-mensah6538]

USA should make a law that any president who plans to go to war should add his sons, daughters, family members including his ministers sons and daughters to the front line. With this no leader will take USA to an unnecessarily wars. They will think and talk about peace first.

[@greggpennington966]

If the member nations of NATO won't pay for their fair and reasonable share of the defence burdens and expenses , why do we as a nation owe it to them or the EU to give them a free ride ? Baffling ! 😅

[@DavidMillsSeven]

Bolton is the real mustache man.

[@jascam1]

With over 27 countries in the EU they should be able to form their own defense alliance without the US leading the helm. The US need to focus on the issues on its own home front.

[@biboygonzales2370]

Trump’s policy of allowing EU member countries to take care of its own security is correct. It reposition NATO from a offensive position back to a defensive position. An opportunity for US to redirect its resources address its domestic needs than foreign.

[@georgewashington-v3d]

The EU could help things and share the expenses for their defense. I don't care much for Trump, but he does make a valid point. Allowing Russia to defeat Ukraine would be wrong on every level.

Tariffs on Chinese products will be negligible ‘to China’ more damaging to US.

This is how low the Telegraph will stoop !

[@HughColling]

I cant understand why anyone thinks fascist Don has the power to end any war, or that U.S. aid actually has any bearing on the matter. I believe that Europe will and should step up in every way, and that the ultimate say in NATO should DEFINITELY NOT be up to the now fascist United States.

[@robr177]

The US can't leave NATO without both Congress and the Senate having a super-majority (two-thirds) voting for it. This law was put in place just last year - specifically because of Trump's threats.

[@svaphrodite]

I've rarely agreed with John Bolton, but on this my agreement is near total -- he should have endorsed Harris.

[@pete9124]

Bolton, the guy says Trump is not a threat to democracy, dream on John!

[@ChessCat9]

A rat is always a rat! I mean Bolton.

[@briancook4654]

Nothing like a fired employee like Bolton, to interview and get a positive answere on Trump
