Donald Trump et l'empire étatsunien sont une menace pour la paix mondiale.

Clémence Guetté (La France Insoumise (LFI) group) submitted a proposal for France to withdraw from NATO, citing U.S. actions during Trump’s presidency, which disregarded the legitimate insterests of the other nations. She accuses the U.S. of kidnapping the Venezuelan president, threatening annexing Greenland, and supporting genocide in Palestine.
“Since Donald Trump’s arrival at the White House on January 20, 2025, the political and media landscape has found a new and inexhaustible subject for discussion. Editorialists, self-proclaimed “experts,” and political commentators have been endlessly pontificating about the American president’s repeated provocations toward the Old Continent” Guetté wrote in her article for review @Recherchesinte1.
.”For example, Le Monde published the headline: “Donald Trump, by wanting to destroy Europe, is forcing its recomposition.” Along similar lines, Le Point ran the headline in June: “Trump feels the hateful rage of a jilted lover toward Europe.” These narratives present this situation sometimes as an anomaly, sometimes as the result of an ill-advised electoral choice. However, the Trump administration’s decisions and their repercussions should not and cannot be analyzed as a rupture or as the advent of a new geopolitical equilibrium. On the contrary, they are the inevitable outcome of the contradictions of a largely anachronistic international order, subservient to the interests of an empire whose economic hegemony is now being challenged. This order is, moreover, incapable of guaranteeing the right of peoples to peace, a right enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations (UN) since 1945: in 2024, the number of armed conflicts was the highest since 1946.
It is in this very particular context that our political camp must, more than ever, dedicate itself to the cause of peace. First and foremost, because we are all filled with horror at the massacre of Palestinians and at the impunity enjoyed by the perpetrators of genocide…”
