Marco Rubio demands from Munich a "stronger alliance" with Europe: "We do not want to have weak allies"

The Secretary of State of the United States, Marco Rubio, gave a speech in which he highlighted the joint role with Europe, in an alliance that “must focus on jointly advancing our interests towards new frontiers“.

“For that we need to regain control of our national borders. Control it well and how many people enter our country. This is not xenophobia, it is not hatred, it is a fundamental act of national sovereignty. It is an urgent threat“, he justified

“We cannot raise the global order in national interests. We must not ignore international cooperation. We do not have to dismantle global institutions, because we have built them together, but they need reform. They have to rebuild“, he reasoned.

Rubio has highlighted that the leadership of the United States was what got Israel and Palestine to sit down at a negotiating table and achieve peace. “He was the one who freed the kidnapped people from the savages“, he added.

Fix “past mistakes”

Marco Rubio has explained that “we do not want to have weak allies, because it would make us even weaker.” “We don’t want allies who are bound by shame or people who don’t understand the strength of their heritage,” he said.

The US Secretary of State has recognized that “we have not come to separate” and that they do want to “a stronger alliance that helps our society“. “We want an alliance that is not paralyzed by fear of war, technology and climate change. The only fear is the shame of not making our nations richer and more powerful,” he explained.

Marco Rubio has urged that the United States and Europe work together and jointly fix the “mistakes of the past” to cooperate in the new world order that has emerged.
