Lu Shaye Fires Back at Trump Over His “Appalling” European Smokescreen
In a much‑anticipated statement, the Chinese envoy for European affairs Lu Shaye hit a raw nerve, calling out President Trump’s recent European rhetoric as “appalling.” He’s not just rubbing shoulders with Russia’s narrative—he’s actively feeding it.
Trump’s “Dictator” Jibe, Ukraine’s “Fake News” Load‑out
- Trump blasted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, slamming him “a dictator” and accusing him of dragging the conflict into the twilight zone. The claim? Purely a run‑of‑the‑mill blurb with no factual backing.
- The former president stopped all promised U.S. military aid—something Joe Biden had already pledged—and halted the sharing of security intel with European allies, handing a free pass to Vladimir Putin.
Lu Shaye’s Gavel‑Like Ripostes
“When you examine how the Trump administration has carved out a wild, domineering policy toward Europe—treating its allies in such a way—it’s genuinely appalling from our perspective,” Shaye told the South China Morning Post on March 6.
He went further, stressing that any peace settlement can’t be mercilessly scribbled by the U.S. or Russia alone. “We need a chorus of voices, not just a solo act,” he added.
Why This Matters
Loosely translated, this is a clear warning: the U.S. can’t keep pushing its agenda on the continent while keeping allies on its backseat. A balanced, inclusive approach is essential if Europe spins the wheels towards a real, lasting peace.

Ellwood Shakes the Spectacle: “The U.S. is Siding with Russia” and Trump’s Plan is Putin’s Dream
Met with the no‑Nazi vibe of Riyadh and Istanbul, the two “peace” summits have become the latest flashpoint in the U.S.–Russia chess game. As the world watches, Ellwood, a vocal critic in Washington, warns that the U.S. might be leaning too close on the Russian side.
Riyadh, February 18 – A Smile, a Nod, and a Flutter of Hope
- Putin and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov walked out of the conference with hands clasped, eyes bright, and a laugh that almost hid the tension.
- “The U.S. is aligning with how Russia thinks,” Lavrov declared, while taking a selfie with a tiny flag that read “peace”.
- Ellwood scooped up this as “The U.S. is sobbing for a buddy named the Kremlin.”
Istanbul, February 27 – A Trump‑Praise Toast
During the second, Putin raised a glass to Trump, calling him a pragmatic hero—“a real wizard who finally flipped the script on bad foreign policy.” The crowd? A mixture of stunned journalists and Putin’s Russian entourage, all clapping at the same time to keep the feel of a coordinated dance.
Trump, presumably, couldn’t have prepared for the whole “what Putin wants” phrase. “He wants a messy order in the world,” Ellwood added, “and the United States has just thrown a party.”
Putin’s Finance‑Flash: “Western Nuisances Stir Drama”
Later at a secret gathering with the Federal Security Service, Putin described the U.S. as the spark that could “create instability.” He claimed, without back‑behind evidence, that the Western powers want to sabotage the budding dialogue.
“We need to anticipate every move any diversifying force may take,” Putin said, plotting a multipronged counter‑attack that involves both diplomacy and intelligence. “Use all the tools, even the ones that hide behind the smokescreens.”
Back to the Ukrainian Predicament
The Kremlin blamed the chaotic chessboard of Ukraine and other regional flashpoints on sabotage attempts—ruminate about what those motives are and how they tie into the supposed “brotherhood” being formed in Washington.
Ellwood’s warning was clear as bite: “The U.S. is rolling into Russian shadows, like a tape with the wrong cover.” As Trump kicks back with his brand‑of-non‑patience, it’s all part of Putin’s Z‑Bam plan to keep the world on edge.
