Trump's Policies Strain US-Europe Relations as EU Responds to Ukraine Crisis
President Trump's disengagement from Ukraine and aggressive trade measures challenge EU unity and prompt European leaders to bolster defense strategies.
- Donald Trump's administration has reduced support for Ukraine, exposing divisions within the EU and reshaping transatlantic relations.
- The EU has announced an €800 billion defense investment plan to strengthen military capabilities in response to the US withdrawal and Russian aggression.
- European leaders, including Emmanuel Macron and Keir Starmer, are taking ad hoc diplomatic initiatives to address the Ukraine conflict, bypassing traditional EU mechanisms.
- Volodymyr Zelensky has called for a truce in air and maritime attacks following intensified Russian bombardments on Ukraine's energy infrastructure.
- The US, Ukraine, and Saudi Arabia are set to discuss a potential framework for peace, with Trump and Zelensky expected to engage directly in upcoming talks.
