The famous Gilray cartoon of Pitt and Napoleon carving up the world has ironic resonance as Russia and the US meet up in Saudi Arabia this week with UK, Europe and Ukraine are not even invited.To be fair, this is more about re-establishing US/Russia relations before any progress can be made on Ukraine, but the, now perpetually outraged, EU politicians, still smarting from their telling off by JD Vance at the Munich Security Conference last week, should perhaps be reflecting on the notion that the US may be taking a more Palmerston-like view to alliances…Therefore I say that it is a narrow policy to suppose that this country or that is to be marked out as the eternal ally or the perpetual enemy of England.
