WARSAW, Poland – Former British Prime Minister Liz Truss has tacitly endorsed Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump over Democratic presidential candidate President Joe Biden, supporting the Republican return to the White House.
“I believe that it is extremely important to return the Republican Party to the White House if the West is to be saved,” Truss said Tuesday at the European Future Forum, organized by the Warsaw Enterprise Institute and Cultural Heritage Foundation, in Warsaw. “
Truss also laughed at Biden’s criticism of his policies from an “ice cream shop in Oregon” when he was prime minister in October 2022.
“The idea of cutting taxes for the super-wealthy was at a time when I was opposed to that policy – if you think about it anyway – but it’s up to Britain to judge that, not me,” Biden said. said.
“But it is unusual for a U.S. president to be so critical of the leader of America’s closest ally,” the British media outlet BBC said at the time.
Truss’s comments come as other European leaders are anxious about what Trump’s return to the White House will mean for Europe, especially since Trump secured the Republican presidential nomination last week. For the first time, it has emerged as part of pro-Trump sentiment from European countries.

Mr. Truss delivered the keynote address at the forum, focusing on the destructiveness of radical leftist ideology to Western civilization.
She denounced environmental extremism, “trans activism” that “undermines the fundamentals of human biologics,” mass immigration, and other forces that are tearing apart the social fabric of the West.
A former British leader has warned that the left is not winning at the ballot box, but winning control of institutions through ideological warfare. The mistake of too many conservatives, she says, is not recognizing the true nature of the fight and trying to meet with the left half-heartedly.
“This is not a traditional political fight,” she said. “What we are seeing is that our values are being undermined from within.”
She said these forces destroying Western countries from within are making it more difficult to deal with an emboldened Moscow, China and Iran. Meanwhile, she said: [are] We are at the forefront of an awakened revolution. ”

He urged NATO members to fulfill their commitments, pointing out that China is using the economy to achieve geopolitical measures, and adding that “economic NATO, including Japan, ” was called for.
