(VitalNews.org) – The debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump had an audience of European Diplomats and politicians. They are anticipating who may take over the White House and what it would mean for the United States and Europe.
One diplomat spoke out about Harris’ reactions to Trump’s conspiracies and policy plans as he stated some interesting things during the debate. However, the diplomat said that they are not underestimating Trump and to “never write him off” as he still has a chance of running the White House.
Another observer from Europe talked well about Harris, supporting how she portrayed herself in the debate. They said, “Objectively on any count she won. She showed her teeth, broke with Joe Biden, and showed she is a leader, and that is something Americans love.”
Michael Roth, the Social Democratic party chair of the Bundestag in Germany, said, “Harris has dismantled Trump on the open stage and positioned herself as a candidate of change. She deliberately provoked Trump, and he fell into the trap.”
The German Foreign Office took to X to speak out about what Donald Trump was claiming about Germany in the debate. They wrote, “Like it or not: Germany’s energy system is fully operational, with more than fifty percent renewables. And we are shutting down – not building – coal & nuclear plants. Coal will be off the grid by 2038 at the latest. PS: We also don’t eat cats and dogs.”
For the Europeans, the debate showed how Donald Trump winning the election would threaten European security. Diplomats were also concerned about Trump’s refusal to say if he wanted Ukraine to defeat Russia in the war.
European leaders spoke about the indecisiveness of American voters as there has been a change in the polls since Harris took over as the Democratic nominee. There has been an increasing excitement around her decision to run for President after Joe Biden dropped out of the race.
