Trump's White House: Allies Struggle for Access
Tap title to read story
European allies struggle to navigate the Trump White House, describing it as a court centered around the unpredictable president. Success in communicating with Trump relies less on traditional diplomatic channels and more on personal connections with advisors or special envoys like Elon Musk. The lack of clarity on whether messages reach Trump is a major concern, with personal relationships seemingly holding more sway than official diplomatic processes. Prime Minister Meloni's upcoming White House meeting exemplifies this approach.
