‘THE WEST NO LONGER EXISTS’: EU Chief Von Der Leyen Declares End of U.S.-Europe Alliance
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has delivered a bold statement: “The West as we knew it no longer exists.” In a powerful new interview, she blames President Trump’s aggressive tariffs—20% on EU goods and 25% on cars—for collapsing the once-strong transatlantic alliance.
As EU-U.S. trade tensions grow, the EU is pivoting toward new global partners.
Von der Leyen says 87% of the world’s trade now happens outside the U.S., marking a clear shift in economic power.
Is the era of a united West truly over?

US President Donald Trump has delayed the implementation of a 50% tariff on EU goods from June 1 to July 9, 2025, following a direct appeal from European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. Trump posted on Truth Social that it was a "privilege" to extend the deadline. Trade tensions remain high, with the EU warning of retaliation if a fair deal isn’t reached. The delay follows earlier tariff hikes in April, and while the UK secured a trade reprieve, Brussels continues to face pressure from US trade demands and regulatory scrutiny.

The UN’s top human rights official, Volker Türk, has strongly condemned U.S. sanctions on four ICC judges as “deeply corrosive” to international justice. These judges, who ruled on cases involving alleged war crimes by U.S. forces in Afghanistan and arrest warrants against Israeli leaders, now face sanctions from the Biden administration. Türk warned that targeting international judges for executing their duties endangers the rule of law. The EU has backed the ICC, vowing to counter these sanctions and defend the court’s independence from political pressure.

As anti-ICE protests rage in Los Angeles, the movement has rapidly spread to Texas, with hundreds marching in Austin and Dallas. Demonstrators demand an end to Trump’s immigration crackdown and the deployment of federal forces. Clashes erupted in Dallas as police declared the protests unlawful. Texas Governor Greg Abbott praised Trump’s response, while California Governor Gavin Newsom condemned the federal overreach. The nation stands divided as immigration, law enforcement, and civil liberties collide on the streets.

As immigration protests erupt across Los Angeles, Mayor Karen Bass has sharply criticized President Trump’s decision to deploy 700 U.S. Marines and thousands of National Guard troops to the city, calling it a dangerous and provocative overreach. The protests, initially sparked by federal immigration raids, have escalated into volatile confrontations, with tear gas, rubber bullets, and widespread chaos in downtown LA. Mayor Bass accused the Trump administration of turning Los Angeles into a "test case" for authoritarian crackdowns, blaming federal militarization for inciting further unrest. California Governor Gavin Newsom has also denounced the move as unconstitutional and has filed legal challenges against the deployment, arguing that it violates state sovereignty.
