Rutte: If the USA betrays Ukraine, it will face a dire threat from the axis of evil

 From the Telegraph / Yahoo!News:

"US faces ‘dire threat’ over Ukraine deal, Nato boss warns Trump

Tony Diver, December 3, 2024
 
The US would face a “dire threat” from China, Iran and North Korea if Ukraine is forced into concessions to end its war with Russia, Nato’s secretary-general has warned Donald Trump...
 
He told the Financial Times there must be a “good deal” for Ukraine when the time comes to negotiate with Russia, and he called for the US to continue military support in the meantime.
 
Mr Trump has promised to bring a swift end to the war in Ukraine, and his allies have suggested he may lean on Kyiv to offer territory to Russia in exchange for a ceasefire...
 
Mr Rutte, who met Mr Trump and his foreign policy team on Nov 23 to discuss a “range of global security issues facing the alliance,” said he had warned the president-elect about a sharp end to the war during their discussion.
 

“We cannot have a situation where we have Kim Jong-un and the Russian leader and Xi Jinping and Iran high-fiving because we came to a deal which is not good for Ukraine,” he told the FT.

“Long-term, that will be a dire security threat not only to Europe but also to the US.”

The alliance chief, who took office in October, added that there were deep military and economic ties between Russia, China, North Korea and Iran with money and weapons changing hands, fuelling the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East."
