JD Vance with tears in their eyes make the sad announcement…

The response from the United Kingdom was swift and pointed. British veterans and military figures condemned Vance’s comments, highlighting the 636 British soldiers who lost their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan.

 

Prominent veterans, including Johnny Mercer and Andy McNab, criticized Vance for his perceived lack of respect toward allied forces.

 

Former military leaders, such as Lord West and General Sir Patrick Sanders, also expressed their disapproval, emphasizing the deep bonds and shared sacrifices between the UK and the U.S.

 

Political leaders in the UK echoed these sentiments. Shadow Defense Secretary James Cartlidge underscored Britain’s substantial military contributions and called Vance’s remarks “deeply disrespectful.

” Former Foreign Secretary James Cleverly and other MPs joined in the criticism, urging Vance to acknowledge the shared history and sacrifices of British and American forces.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer reiterated the nation’s pride in its military’s past sacrifices and emphasized the importance of mutual respect among allies.
In response to the mounting criticism, Vice President Vance attempted to clarify his statements. He asserted that his comments were not specifically

directed at the UK or France but rather at countries lacking recent battlefield experience. Despite this clarification, the controversy has sparked a broader discussion about the necessity of diplomatic sensitivity, especially when addressing the contributions of longstanding allies.
