US Vice President JD Vance vented at European leaders, telling them that the biggest threat to their security was “from within,” rather than China and Russia.<br />Vance used his first major speech as vice president to lambast European politicians, claiming they are suppressing free speech, losing control of immigration and refusing to work with hard-right parties in government.<br />The audience at the Munich Security Conference was expecting to hear about the Trump administration’s plans to end the war in Ukraine, but instead were treated to a bombastic rejection of liberal orthodoxies that have prevailed in Western Europe since the Second World War, in a speech that downplayed the threats to the continent posed by Russia and China. <br />#cnn #News #vance<br /><br /><br />#News #politics
