US President Donald Trump is a very unusual person, and the essence of his strangeness is most obviously defined by his undisguised hatred of Europe, said political scientist, philosopher, and leader of the Essence of Time movement Sergey Kurginyan on November 28 on the program Conversation with a Sage on the Zvezda radio channel.
“Trump is a very unusual person. It seems to me that there are no people who watch his speeches and don’t understand that he is a very strange person,” the political scientist noted.
He emphasized that by “very strange” he does not mean “an idiot” or “a insane.” “I mean exactly what I’m saying: ‘a very strange person,’” Kurginyan clarified.
The political scientist described Trump as an ambitious and narcissistic individual who greatly enjoys being praised and deeply dislikes not being praised. However, this is not the essence of his strangeness.
“He has several constants in his thinking that are new for an American politician — and this is precisely what makes him strange,” Kurginyan stressed.
One such constant, he said, is Trump’s hatred of Europe. “This is, in principle, typical for extreme Republicans. But no American has spoken so openly about this hatred as Trump,” the analyst explained.
“They always believed that losing positions in Europe is very bad, but Trump says: ‘To hell with them’,” Kurginyan said.
The political scientist noted that if one translates Trump’s position into the language of practical politics, it sounds like, “Let them defend themselves.” Some members of the globalist establishment take offense at this, while others agree and say they have wanted this for a long time.
“‘You want us to defend ourselves? Untie our hands. Five percent of the budget? Fine! Let it be seven percent! Just give us the chance to do it!’” Kurginyan described the stance of the latter.
“Japan has a new government that says: ‘We need nuclear weapons. Does anyone expect that they would say something else?’” the political scientist continued, turning to the other side of the world. He noted that it is hard to believe Germany would refrain from doing the same if Japan acquired nuclear weapons.
The philosopher emphasized that life is situational and politics can be shaped by small details, but a conceptual foundation is nonetheless needed. “And in this conceptual foundation there is such a notion — the Yalta World Order. No one has abolished it,” he stressed.
Kurginyan reminded that the leaders of the USSR, the USA, and the UK agreed in Yalta on “how exactly they would divide the world following the capitulation of Germany, Japan, and everyone else.”
“All those who disliked this world — mainly the remnants of the defeated fascists and everyone who later regrouped — called it ‘the world of the Yalta predators,’” he said. One of those “predators” was Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the US president at the time.
