BREAKING: The Netherlands just CANCELLED cooperation with the US, and BLASTED Trump for his crimes. Enjoy every word:
The Netherlands announced it is halting cooperation with U.S. counter-drug missions after American forces killed more than 100 people in attacks on boats accused of smuggling drugs.
This was not a quiet policy tweak. It was an unprecedented public rebuke of Trump and his administration’s crimes.
Defense Minister Ruben Brekelmans made it clear that Dutch forces will only operate inside their own territorial waters and will no longer join U.S. high-seas missions tied to Operation Southern Spear.
His words were BRUTAL.
“We have worked together with the Americans on counter-narcotics for many years, but in a different way,” Brekelmans said. “When we see drug smuggling, we try to arrest and prosecute those responsible. Not by shooting ships.”
Brekelmans went further, saying the Netherlands will not provide ships, helicopters, facilities, or support if Washington asks for help with Southern Spear. “The method and the operation the United States is carrying out now, they are really doing that themselves,” he said. “We are not participating in that.”
Dutch officials confirmed their naval station ship is now being used only for monitoring regional security, not for U.S.-led drug missions. Any counter-drug support will be limited strictly to Dutch territorial waters.
This public break comes as outrage grows over Trump’s decision to use military force to seize Venezuela’s President Nicolás Maduro, an escalation condemned internationally as a violation of sovereignty and international law. Brekelmans warned that rising tensions threaten regional stability, airspace, and security even if there is no immediate military threat to the Dutch Caribbean.
Every Western nation is finding a way to abandon Trump. Even the UK reportedly suspended intelligence sharing after the U.S. began launching lethal strikes on boats in the Caribbean.
This is what Trump’s authoritarian foreign policy looks like in practice: allies refusing to participate, democratic governments drawing lines in public, and the United States isolated because its president prefers violence over law.
he Netherlands didn’t whisper this. They said it out loud. And Trump has never looked weaker.
THANK YOU to The Netherlands, for standing up to our pathetic thug president.
