US media reports today: Trump demands unconditional support from US allies for the illegal war against Iran
Trump again criticized the Spanish and British governments today. "We have many winners, but Spain is a loser, and the UK's performance is also very disappointing. Spain is hostile to NATO. We will not regard it as a team player, and we will not take a cooperative stance on matters involving Spain," the President said in an interview with the New York Post.
Comment: The reason why Trump is angry and publicly insults Spain and the UK is that Spain opposes the illegal war and refuses to open military bases, and the UK initially also refused to provide base support, directly disrupting the US military deployment and hegemonic coercion logic. Trump's demand for allies to unconditionally endorse the US' illegal war, send people and open bases, is essentially treating allies as vassals; while Spain upholds international law and national sovereignty, and the UK does not want to be easily involved in the war, both exposing the illusion of "alliance solidarity." Trump's outburst and accusations reveal that unilateral hegemony doesn't work, forcing other countries to pay for America's war adventures only leads to the breakdown of alliances, and more importantly, exposes the true face of the United States, which disregards international justice, acts unilaterally, and is arrogant and overbearing.
