Many European leaders have started to view the US less like an ally and more like a liability. As a result, Europe’s defense decoupling from the US finds itself on a fast track.
Thank you Shellie and Peter! We need clear concise, hard information over here in the USofA where the major papers spend more time on traffic, weather and fashion than what is actually happening in the world. We also need... a world view.
Glad you liked it! This is one of the top 3 articles so far, which kind of defies the belief that people won't read anything longer than 750-1000 words. The defense issue is much more far-reaching than most people imagine, disrupting a world order that's been In place for nearly 80 years, and which today means "defense" in a different kind of threat, a different kind of defense, different weaponry, and different impact on the taxpayers who pay for it. Thanks for taking the time to respond.
This is such a hot topic, a fast moving one, with great impact on everyday life - the cost of living, whether to work from home or at the office, and whether governments spend more on weapons or education and health service. And there is an erratic political factor in Washington - or Florida.
