At the 2026 Munich Security Conference, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered a speech so profound it doubled as family therapy. Declaring the US 'a child of Europe,' Rubio pitched a new 'world order,' which apparently means: 'We might rescue you if you help pay the babysitter.' He warned Europe about Russia's ominous vibes, affirmed America’s willingness to go solo like a rebellious teenager but begged, 'Please don’t make me.' The event unfolded on February 14, a romantic touch no doubt deliberate, as Rubio pleaded for a harmonious partnership with Europe's not-so-willing parents.
