There is no end to the imperial hypocrisy of the European Union. They never abandoned colonialism; they just became junior partners in crime to the US empire. Warmongering EU chief von der Leyen refuses to utter a word about Trump bombing Venezuela, kidnapping its president, and announcing an open-ended US colonial occupation to "run" the country (and pillage its oil). She says they "support a peaceful and democratic transition". But it already is NOT peaceful (or democratic). The US just bombed the country! Trump just said the US is going to govern Venezuela (ie, establish a colonial dictatorship)! And she refuses to even acknowledge this. The craziest part of all is von der Leyen cynically pretends to care about international law and the UN Charter, which her masters in Washington just tore up and spat on.
