European governments US Treasuries: European governments are considering a radical economic strategy by possibly selling off US Treasury bonds to counter a feared Trump-Putin agreement that could jeopardize Ukraine's security. This unprecedented response could trigger a financial crisis in the US and severely impact the global economy.

    I highly doubt this would actually happen, but would be hilarious to watch.

      i was going to say something like this.

      it’s like eisenhower’s threat to eden but in reverse and just as empty; they’ll never threaten profits or capital and they’ve also made themselves even more depended on the us.

        Exactly, it’s far more likely that the US dumps Europe than the other way around. I think the US would be very happy if the EU fell apart because then they’d be negotiating with individual countries from a position of absolute power. And the recent policy paper kinds of spells this out https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/2025-National-Security-Strategy.pdf
