Former US President Donald Trump (2017-2021) assured this Thursday that “we have never been so close to World War III” and that there must be a “total commitment to dismantle the globalist neoconservative power group”, responsible for dragging the world to “endless wars”.
“We have never been closer to World War III than we are now under (US President) Joe Biden,” Trump said in a video posted on his own social network, Truth.
The former US president blamed, without citing names, the “globalist neoconservative establishment” for provoking “perpetually endless wars” under the alibi of “fighting for freedom and democracy abroad.”
Meanwhile, he said, “they make us a third world country and a third world dictatorship.”
In the 3:35-minute video, titled “Preventing World War III,” Trump warns that “global conflict” between nuclear powers would mean “death and destruction” and unleash “nuclear Armageddon.”
For this reason, the former president, who announced last November in Florida that he will compete in the 2024 elections to return to the White House, called for an end to hostilities in Ukraine.
“Every day that this battle for power in Ukraine continues, we run the risk of a global war,” he said, stressing that the goal is to “immediately achieve a total cessation of hostilities.”
“All the shooting has to stop. This is the central issue. We need peace without delay,” he asserted in the new Agenda47 video dressed in a blue suit and tie with multiple US flags as a backdrop.
While Trump and former US Governor and UN Ambassador Nikki Haley are so far the only official contenders for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, current Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is expected to enter the fray shortly. .
If he does, DeSantis could become a direct rival to Trump, who was his main supporter to achieve the governorship of Florida, a relationship that has cooled down to the point of confrontation.
On Wednesday, a Trump-friendly fundraising organization filed a formal complaint with the Florida Ethics Commission against DeSantis, arguing that he is waging a “shadow presidential campaign.”
The Super PAC Make America Great Again (MAGA) alleges in its lawsuit that the conjunction of super PACs in favor of DeSantis, the contributions at the state level and his “lucrative” tour to present his latest book come to mean a de facto candidacy to the White House.
Former President Trump accuses De Santis of copying him, both in his personal style and in his positions, agenda and political objectives, which includes such sensitive issues as the war in Ukraine.
