After bashing allies, #Trump now wants their help — except from #Ukraine

After months of disparaging his #European #allies, U.S. President Donald Trump suddenly seeks their assistance.

Experts see an emerging pattern:

• Take unilateral actions without including allies
• Then bully them into supporting that action

Adding to the #irony, Trump has dismissed the one partner who offered assistance with shoring up drone defenses against Iranian attacks — Ukraine.
