– How to end the war if you do not talk to Russia?
Vice President JD Vance defends its controversial Ukraine outputs when the US conservative meets for CPAC meeting.
At the same time, the tech billionaire Elon Musk runs chainsaw on stage.
– I really think we are close to peace in Europe, for the first time in three years, says Vance when he was starting at the conference according to the media.
Vance and other trumpers for the trump handlebar have been shocked Europe in the past week with play that NATO membership for Ukraine is not relevant and that a return to the country’s borders from the time before 2014 is “unrealistic”. They have also started a dialogue with Russia about Ukraine, which Kiev and Europe in general appear to be closed out of.
Gets applause
In Europe, crisis meetings are now being held, but among the audience at the CPAC conference, enthusiasm is massive. And Vance defends the line, including his boss’s criticized telephone call with Russia’s Vladimir Putin and Trump’s basic claims that Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyj is a “dictator”.
– I get standing ovations for a speech I have already held. Two for the price of one, Vance said good about the response according to Politico.
So he went on to pay tribute to President Donald Trump’s policy in general – including impacts against the paperless and the extensive cuts in the state apparatus that are ongoing.
A few hours after him, the stage was taken by Tesla and SpaceX founder Elon Musk. He leads Trump’s controversial white house initiative Dogge (Department of Government Efficiency), which works with government efficiency and savings.
Got a saw
To the audience’s cheer, Musk in front of their eyes received a chainsaw from Argentina President Javier Milei, who also participates in the conference. During the Ultralibertarian Milei’s campaign, the chainsaw became a symbol of the drastic cuts he promised in the state apparatus.
– We try to do good things. But, you know, we try to have fun when we do it … and a little humor, Musk said after showing up his saw about the extensive cuts he launched.
CPAC, Conservative Political Action Conference, brings together politicians, financiers, thinkers and media personalities from the political right.
