In the television debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, he was questioned about the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the aid to Volodymyr Zelensky by the United States. The brief response of the now president-elect was that this war did not concern his country. And he added: “we have an ocean in between.”
That strong phrase is a true confession of the way Trump views foreign policy. Specifically, the relations that the US should have with Europe. For him, the European Union does not count as a global actor. It’s that simple.
