Transatlantic relations are seemingly so bad, even speaking English didn't help EU foreign ministers get their message across to Donald Trump's top diplomat

"We underlined that there is currently no better example of the need for international cooperation than this health crisis," Borrell said. "That's why we have regretted the U.S. announcement that they intend to withdraw from the World Health Organization and expect that this decision could be reconsidered, because global problems need global solutions and multilateral tools and multilateral cooperation is more needed than ever.

On Ukraine, at least, Borrell said that the EU and U.S. mainly see eye to eye. "Our position remains clear and unchanged," he said, urging Moscow to take steps to implement the Minsk peace agreement. "Secretary Pompeo, High Representative Borrell, and the ministers discussed the importance of the Trans-Atlantic partnership in rebuilding our economies post-COVID, as well as upholding our shared commitment to democratic values that serve as a bulwark against Russian and PRC [People's Republic of China] attempts to undermine democratic societies," the State Department statement said. "The Secretary highlighted joint U.S.

........... Scathing piece coming on the Back of a Pandemic that has had most of Government Teleworking from home.

Donald Trump's top diplomat is nothing more than an ideologue with a megaphone. Whacking Pompeo over the head with a 2 x 4 wouldn't get the message into his willingly obtuse little brain.

for god sakes who fucked up and told them trump speaks English?
