Trump's first term
Meloni defends Vance's speech: "Europe has been sacrificed"
The Italian Prime Minister on Saturday came to the defense of US Vice President JD Vance's speech at the Munich Security Conference. This is reported by Politico.
In a speech via video link at the conservative political conference CPAC in the US, she attacked the "elite" who were outraged by Vance's speech and said that Europe "has been sacrificed on the altar of wokeness, bureaucracy and mercantilism".
- Vice President Vance discussed something deeper: Identity, democracy and freedom of expression.
At the conference last week, Vance accused European countries of, among other things, a lack of freedom of expression and fear of their own voters.
Trump fires top military as part of a major reshuffle
Donald Trump fires US Defense Secretary Charles Q Brown Jr. In a post on his Truth Social platform, he calls Brown a “gentleman” and an “outstanding leader,” but says change is needed.
The dismissal is part of an “extraordinary” reshuffle at the Pentagon, writes the New York Times. A total of six experienced Pentagon leaders are being fired. This will have repercussions throughout the organization, as military leaders around the world are expected to be moved up a notch, writes Politico.
Neither Trump nor Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth have provided any further justification. But Charles Q Brown has long been the target of Republicans in Congress, with accusations that he prioritized diversity and inclusion over delivering on the battlefield.
– The new leadership will focus our military on its core mission of deterring, fighting and winning wars, says Hegseth.
