Donald Trump’s administration has accused Europe of being an ‘incubator’ for terrorism fueled by mass migration that is allowing ‘alien cultures’ to grow.
A new counterterrorism strategy unveiled on Wednesday focuses on rooting out ‘violent left-wing extremists’ including ‘radically pro-transgender’ groups, as Trump’s conservative administration steps up its political attacks on opponents.
It further places drug cartels in the Americas at the center of counterterrorism efforts.
But some of its strongest language is reserved for Europe, home to numerous US allies who will be alarmed to see their continent in the Trump administration’s crosshairs once again.
‘It is clear to all that well-organized hostile groups exploit open borders and related globalist ideals. The more these alien cultures grow, and the longer current European policies persist, the more terrorism is guaranteed,’ the strategy said.
‘As the birthplace of Western culture and values, Europe must act now and halt its willful decline,’ said the strategy, led by counterterrorism coordinator Sebastian Gorka.
