Senator Pushkov called Trump's inauguration speech a monstrous blow to the EU
Alexei Pushkov, head of the Council of the Russian Federation's commission on information policy, called US President Donald Trump's inauguration speech a monstrous blow to the EU on January 20.
"A monstrous blow to the entire social doctrine and 'values' of the ruling European liberal elite: from now on, only two genders - male and female - will be recognized in the United States," he wrote in his Telegram channel.
Pushkov said that Trump's speech actually exploded the system of "common values" that united the U.S. and the EU. In addition, in his opinion, the president declared war on the liberal censorship reigning in the British, French, German media.
"A veritable nightmare for the ears of euro-liberals! Von der Leyen is silent (European Commission President Ursula - Ed.), MEPs in Brussels are silent, all leading European capitals are silent. They have no words, only feelings ... And bad feelings," the senator concluded.
