During the 82nd anniversary of the June 6, 1944 landings, US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth warned that Europe’s freedom could be temporary if leaders fail to defend against what he called an "invasion" of dangerous ideologies arriving through migration. He also urged European nations to strengthen their own defenses and address bureaucratic red‑tape.
Not empty slogans, not lavish summits, not communiques. Real allies doing real things, taking real losses for a shared cause worth fighting and dying for.
The men buried here fought in a war-fighting alliance where every partner... brought its full measure of industry, courage and sacrifice.
Sadly, today, different European beaches are stormed by different, dangerous ideologies. Beaches in Spain, Italy, Greece and Bulgaria, boats and men arrive.
When will European capitals do something about that invasion or is it too late? I pray not, and I believe not.
