"The United States cannot replace European citizens in choosing what the good or the bad parties are," said European Council President Antonio Costa.
BRUSSELS (AP) — A top European Union official on Monday warned the United States against interfering in Europe’s affairs and said only European citizens can decide which parties should govern them.
European Council President Antonio Costa’s remarks came in reaction to the Trump administration’s new national security strategy, which was published on Friday and paints European allies as weak while offering tacit support to far-right political parties.
It’s “good” that the strategy depicts European countries as an ally but “allies don’t threaten to interfere in the domestic political choices of their allies,” Costa said.
“What we can’t accept is the threat of interference in European political life. The United States cannot replace European citizens in choosing what the good or the bad parties are,” he said in Paris at the Jacques Delors Institute, a think tank.
The strategy was critical of European free speech and migration policy.
