🇬🇧🗣️🇺🇸In the latest episode of Diplomatic Babysitting, UK officials have reportedly warned German chancellor-in-waiting Friedrich Merz and French president Emmanuel Macron to tone down their public demands over Ukraine—because it might “annoy” Donald Trump.
Yes, you read that right. The tariff tantrums have just cooled off, and now Britain’s playing hall monitor, telling Europe’s big boys: “Look lads, we’ve just got him to put the toys back in the pram—don’t go rattling it again.”
🎯 The Real Message
It’s less about Ukraine policy and more about keeping Trump in a mood where he doesn’t suddenly slap 200% tariffs on European goods or tweet something that sends the euro into a mid-life crisis.
So for now, the strategy seems to be: whisper your support for Ukraine, smile politely, and for heaven’s sake don’t say anything that might make Mar-a-Lago slam the phone down.
