This is not a ball... this is a magic instrument that transforms people, into happy people.

Just last year, here in Davos, I ended my speech with the words, “Europe needs to know how to defend itself.”

A year has passed, and nothing has changed.

There was so much talk about the protests in Iran, but they drowned in blood.

The world has not helped enough the Iranian people; it has stood aside.

By the time politicians started forming positions, the Ayatollah had already killed thousands.

What will Iran become after this bloodshed?

If the regime survives, it sends a clear signal to every bully: kill enough people and you stay in power.

Trump conducted an operation in Venezuela and Maduro was arrested.

There were different opinions about this. But the fact is a fact — Maduro is in court in New York, sorry, but Putin is not in court.

Why can Trump stop tankers from the shadow fleet and seize oil, but Europe does not?

Russian oil is being transported right along Europe’s shores, and that oil is funding the war against Ukraine. This directly contributes to destabilizing Europe.

Russian oil must be stopped, confiscated, and sold for Europe’s benefit. Why not? If Putin has no money, there is no war. If Europe has the resources, it can protect its people.

Today, Europe relies mainly on the belief that if danger comes, NATO will act. But no one has ever really seen the alliance tested in full.

If Putin decided to take Lithuania or strike Poland, who would respond?

NATO exists thanks to the belief that the United States will act — that it will not stand aside and will help. But what if it does not?

Europe must learn how to defend itself.

Sending 14 or 40 soldiers to Greenland — what is that meant to achieve?

What message does that send to Putin? To China?

And perhaps most importantly, what message does it send to Denmark?

Everyone is waiting to see what the United States will do — while the rest of the world offers nothing.

Europe offers nothing and chooses not to engage.
