EU and US: Allies Amidst Change

The European Union, led by Ursula von der Leyen, continues to view the United States as a key ally despite notable differences, especially under President Donald Trump's administration. Von der Leyen emphasizes that the relationship with the US is distinct from that with China, highlighting shared interests that surpass existing divergences.

The geopolitical landscape is rapidly evolving, challenging long-standing alliances and European values such as democracy and freedom. In response, the EU is mobilizing significant resources for defense and addressing security concerns, including dependency on Russian gas and migration pressures.

Von der Leyen is advocating for strengthened European defense and security measures, indicating a shift in transatlantic relations as a wake-up call. Regular security talks with EU commissioners are planned to better address these challenges.

The EU's commitment to Ukraine, demonstrated by substantial military aid, underscores its proactive stance in maintaining regional stability.

Von der Leyen: US are "allies" despite "differences"

Politics
The EU considers the US as "allies" despite differences. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen says there is "a completely different relationship with the United States than with China". The world around us is changing quickly and geopolitical shifts are shaking up alliances. European values - democracy, freedom, rule of law - are at risk. The changed tone in relations with the US is a very clear wake-up call.

The meetings will also consider the lack of high-level meetings between the EU and Trump administration.
