Munich-Sana

German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier criticized the policies taken by the administration of US President Donald Trump and their primacy in the interests of the international community.

“We are moving away year after year from our primary goal of establishing international cooperation to create a more peaceful and secure world,” Steinmeier quoted him as saying in the opening speech to the Munich Security Conference today. The new reality is dominated all over the world. ”

"Our closest ally, the United States, under the current administration, even rejects the idea of ​​the international community," Steinmeier added, as if everyone were thinking of restoring its glory, even if it is at the expense of the neighborhood and partners if the need arises.

In a related context, German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas said in his speech to the conference that "the time when the United States was acting as a global policeman is over."

Sputnik said that Mas believed that "the decision-making centers for many disputes around the world have changed and some have turned to Russia."

It is noteworthy that the German city of Munich will host from today until the sixteenth of February this work of the Munich Security Conference in its 56th session with the participation of a number of heads of state and heads of government to discuss the current crises and future security challenges.
