This cartoon is bad because it implies that Uschi, of all people, wouldn't be cowering in the very middle under the table, having been the first down there, but instead somehow would be standing up straight and inviting others to wiggle their fingers together with her.

(Yes, I am taking this far too serious and I need to shut up)

The UK needs to be under a small separate table next to it.

Ya, her response has been pretty lukewarm already.

Following very closely the situation in Venezuela. We stand by the people of Venezuela and support a peaceful and democratic transition. Any solution must respect international law and the UN Charter.

transition

Sorry Uschi but in this context it sounds like you're legitimizing the USA's actions, both what already happened and what they're going to do with their "booty".

The only "transition" needed is for the USA to give back their president (dictator or not) and GTFO.

Nah, I'm 100% with you. Either the cartoonist didn't think it through or they actively support a false narrative.

At least one has spoken against the kidnapping. Spain.

The tipped over chairs kinda look like tombstones with fresh graves.

We gotta sell off US Bonds before Greenland gets invaded

Don't worry, they're likely to get a few more chances to cower because there is no way this shit is over, three more years of this AT LEAST.

Sadly, extortion is probably at play. EU likely needs Ukraine money from the United States for self-defense.
