In the n-tv interview, security expert Dr. Joachim Weber criticizes the behaviour of the US government under Donald Trump in the Ukraine conflict. Trump has made contradictory statements - first criticizing Zelensky, then defending him from Putin. Weber describes Washington's behavior as chaotic like a “bunch of chickens” and warns that this unpredictability undermines trust in the USA. The half-life of Trump's statements has dwindled “from 14 days to 24 hours”.

First Trump publicly discredits Ukraine President Zelensky, then he defends him from Putin. And the US President's course can hardly be “assessed on the basis of logic and reason”. This is what security expert Joachim Weber says. He sums up: “It's an example for the textbooks. This is not how it should be done.”

Dr. Joachim Weber 2conducts research in the field of strategic foresight with the aim of generating better approaches for practical policy action on the basis of analytical instruments and better linking theory and practice. Before joining CASSIS, he researched geostrategic and security policy-relevant developments in the High North in the ISPK's Arctic project (2017-2019). Dr. Weber is co-founder of the Kavoma (Disaster Risk Reduction and Management) course at the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn (2006 ff.). For more than two decades, he has taught numerous courses on various topics of history, political geography and political science at the universities of Hamburg, Bonn, Zagreb and Akron, OH.
