So much for appeasement. The same Europeans who held their nose and swallowed their pride when the EU agreed to Donald Trump's tariffs last summer can no longer ignore the obvious – that there are limits with a president of the United States who tends to treat them as vassals, not allies, or even as adversaries for pushing back on its White nationalist brand of nativism.
We ask how much pain citizens are willing to bear in the name of safeguarding the continent's security and sovereignty, and how far countermeasures can go in the face of Trump's grab for Greenland, the tariffs slapped on Denmark's allies and official US policy that views liberal values as a threat.
And then there’s Ukraine. A lot of the carefully-worded "diplospeak" from European capitals this past year has been about keeping the US president on board. But from Greenland to the Baltics, is Europe ready for what lies ahead?
