Victor Davis Hanson: Why Won’t Europe Help ‘Rockstar’ Zelenskyy?

Subscribe to Daily SignalSubscribe

Europe treats Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy like a superstar, yet still expects the United States to fund Ukraine’s war against Russia.

Is this fair?

“ Of all the players in this drama, it's Europe who should be in the driver's seat. They have 500 million people,” says Victor Davis Hanson on this episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

“We have 500 million people in Europe and they're very upset that 330 million people across the ocean will not help 40 million people fighting 140 million people in Russia.

In other words, of all the players in this drama, it's Europe who should be in the driver's seat. They have 500 million people. And yet, when we look at their expenditures, nine countries out of the 32, 11 years later, have not increased their NATO contributions to 2%. That's all we're asking for.”
