Sauli Niinistö also warned that the rules-based liberal world order is 'crumbling before our eyes,' and required global cooperation to save it.
The president of Finland said Friday U.S. President Donald Trump is a lot more collaborative than he appears, as he warned that the rules-based world order is collapsing, and that unified action—including from an increasingly isolated U.S.—is required to save it.
Haass noted that the U.S. under President Donald Trump appears increasingly unwilling to support the global order. Trump seemingly has an inherent aversion to multilateralism and global cooperation, demonstrated by his disdainful remarks regarding the European Union,, NAFTA, the WTO, the Paris Climate accord and the Iran nuclear deal, among other institutions and agreements.
Niinistö has previously said it is hard to imagine solving the global problems faced by the international community. But Haass asked the president how this squares with Moscow's efforts to undermine the established rules-based order. "Every citizen is a defender of his or her country," he said, before pointing to his head and adding"at least between the ears."
