This initiative is a solution in search of a problem.

Trump has disavowed democracy in the U.S. so this will be three authoritarian superpowers aligning against the world’s democratic countries. Notice that Putin didn’t invite the EU or any democracy.

IMHO, Putin will offer to stop offensive military operations if Ukraine cedes territory Russia controls. Trump will give Ukraine an ultimatum - take the deal or the U.S. will provide military support to Russia. The EU will be forced to intervene with as much military assistance as possible. So, Putin has manipulated Trump into starting WW3.

Current status of French democracy

Yeah, Jon Ossoff👏🏻
