The warning didn’t come from some fringe blog or anonymous Telegram channel.
It came stamped with an official seal and signed by Donald Trump himself.
A new 33-page U.S. national security strategy from the Trump regime lays out a chilling diagnosis of Europe’s future: according to them, the continent is on track for “civilizational erasure” within 20 years. The supposed culprits? Migration, the European Union, and what they call “regulatory suffocation.”
But beneath the bureaucratic language lies something much darker — a roadmap to radicalize U.S. foreign policy in favor of far-right, nationalist, and even neo-Nazi-aligned movements across Europe.
The document doesn’t just critique Europe’s economy or bureaucracy. It brands the EU itself as a threat to “national sovereignty and political liberty,” and paints migration as a demographic time bomb that will make some NATO members “majority non-European” in a few decades. It explicitly flirts with the racist “Great Replacement” conspiracy theory, the same ideology that has inspired mass shooters and extremist terror cells.
And then comes the part that made European officials’ blood run cold:
The strategy calls for the United States to “cultivate resistance” inside European nations — encouraging nationalist parties, far-right coalitions, and anti-EU movements to rise up against their own governments. The document praises the “growing political strength of patriotic European parties” — including some already in power, some propping up fragile coalitions, and others leading polls by exploiting fear and hate.
It openly celebrates far-right parties like Germany’s AfD, a group so toxic it’s widely compared to a “modern Nazi party,” for their role in challenging Europe’s post–World War II democratic order.
On paper, Trump’s policy pretends to be about “defending freedom of expression” and “real democracy.” In practice, it is a green light for hard-right forces that want to pull Europe out of the EU, roll back human rights protections, gut climate policy, and demonize migrants and minorities.
It doesn’t stop at ideology. The document scolds Europe for being “weak” on Russia, while pushing for a rapid end to the war in Ukraine — an end that would almost certainly reward Putin with territory and impunity. It claims European leaders are out of step with their people, accusing them of “trampling democracy” to block some mythical, silent majority that supposedly just wants “peace” at any cost.
Translation: abandon Ukraine, let Russia keep what it’s grabbed, lift sanctions, and move on.
Except Europe has seen this playbook before.
And this time, it’s fighting back.
While Trump’s strategy flirts with civilizational panic and far-right fantasies, European law enforcement and institutions are confronting the real civilizational threat: rising neo-Nazi extremism and Kremlin-linked sabotage.
In Spain, authorities recently arrested three suspected members of The Base, a U.S.-born neo-Nazi terrorist group with global ambitions. Their leader, Rinaldo Nazzaro, an American ex–DHS analyst now living in Russia, has been accused of acting as a Kremlin asset while financing violence and assassination plots, particularly against Ukrainian targets.
The Spanish cell wasn’t just posting memes. They were organizing:
- Using Telegram to recruit, share weapons photos, and trade training material.
- Advocating for a white ethnostate in western Ukraine’s Zakarpattia region.
- Pushing for “calculated ruthlessness” and stockpiling weapons, cash, and combat knives.
The imagery seized from them — firearms, Nazi iconography, tactical gear — is a stark reminder of where this kind of ideology leads if left unchecked.
And it fits a larger pattern. Across Europe, security services have tracked Russian operatives using far-right extremists and criminal networks as tools for sabotage and destabilization. Bombings, arson, critical infrastructure attacks — all carried out by people who think they’re fighting for “Western civilization” while doing the Kremlin’s dirty work.
Meanwhile, inside the United States, The Base has already moved from hate to action. FBI investigations undercut plots for mass shootings and bombings. Yet under Trump, experts warn that federal law enforcement was quietly pulled back from aggressively pursuing right-wing extremism, even as these groups hardened into paramilitary networks with live-fire drills and tactical training.
So when Trump’s national security document talks about “civilizational erasure,” Europeans hear something very different:
They hear a U.S. administration normalizing the language of white nationalism, undermining Europe’s democratic institutions, empowering far-right parties, and pushing a “peace” with Russia that hands Putin a victory he couldn’t win in open battle.
For many in Europe, this isn’t a strategy.
It’s a warning label — on Trump, on MAGA, and on the neo-Nazi-adjacent movements now trying to brand themselves as “patriots.”
The response?
Arrests. Investigations. Legal tools to freeze Russian assets. Cross-border crackdowns on extremist networks. And a renewed determination in key European capitals to defend Ukraine, defend pluralistic democracy, and stop a slide into a 21st-century version of the nightmare their grandparents already lived through.
Trump’s document paints Europe as a continent on the brink of collapse.
Europe’s answer is blunt:
We’ve seen this movie before.
And we are not letting it happen again.
