At the CPAC conference of conservatives in Washington, U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance expressed his concerns about illegal immigration, which he considered the greatest threat to Europe. Vance emphasized that "millions of unchecked illegal immigrants" pose a serious challenge to civilization.

Vance noted that the future of U.S. relations with Europe would depend on shared values, such as "freedom of speech."

Vance pointed out that American taxpayers fund Germany's entire defence, and thousands of U.S. soldiers are stationed there. He questioned whether Americans would accept this arrangement if individuals in Germany faced imprisonment for posting critical tweets. He also stressed that U.S. troops in Germany are not without conditions.

negotiations in Europe

In the context of ongoing negotiations to end the war in Ukraine, Vance assessed that the talks are in an early stage, but we are "on the brink of peace in Europe." He stressed that President Trump is ready to talk to all parties to achieve lasting peace.

Vance stated that Trump's goal is to halt the violence and establish lasting peace in Europe, emphasizing his broader efforts to resolve conflicts globally.

Vance boasts about his Munich speech

Vance argued that his speech at the Munich Security Conference was positively received among European conservatives, many of whom attended the CPAC. In Munich, Vance criticized Brussels and key officials, which pleased anti-EU circles.

The speakers at the Washington edition of the conference included Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, former Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki, and Slovakian government head Robert Fico.
