World leaders and senior diplomatic figures remain rather silent after President Trump's impeachment.
"Trump is Saudi Arabia's biggest defender. Authorities there will view impeachment as betting on the wrong horse," said Ali Al-Ahmed, a Saudi-born scholar and expert on the kingdom's political affairs who runs the Washington, D.C.-based Institute for Gulf Affairs, a think tank."Domestically, they will seem foolish," he added.
Britain stayed silent. So did France. And the European Union. There were few media hot takes out of India or South Korea or other places where Trump is closely watched. "Trump is most unpopular in Germany. Only 10% of Germans trust the American president – compared to 35% who actually trust Vladimir Putin. This is no expression of engrained anti-Americanism, but a most damning verdict on the person himself. After all, 86% of Germans used to trust in the leadership of President Obama."
Gilead Sher, previously chief of staff in former Israel Prime Minister Ehud Barak's government, said that Trump's impeachment and Netanyahu's indictment"reflect both societies' rejection of moral turpitude and solidify the rule of law."
