Both Trump and Putin have worked to weaken the European Union, one high-level official said.
President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin both want to weaken the European Union, a top European official said on Wednesday in the lead-up to European parliamentary elections this weekend.
“We are [for the] first time in the history in a situation where the President of the United States and [the] President of Russia seem to share the same view on Europe: the weaker, the better, because they think that it’s better for their own country, which is obviously not right,” Katainen added. The Trump administration then went on to downgrade the E.U.’s diplomatic status in Washington, from nation state to international organization, without informing European counterparts.
Russia has also backed far-right populist candidates like France’s Marine Le Pen and Italy’s Matteo Salvini, who has appeared at rallies wearing a t-shit with Putin’s face emblazoned on it.
