Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called for the creation of a unified European military force, saying the continent must be self-reliant amid a persistent threat from Russia and uncertainty about U.S. support – a situation he described as “this new reality.”

    It just a nice way of saying we should distance from US.
    A trick for politicians to talk about it trough media and countries without talking about US, like who else think this…. It would be Germany and France that would have to be the prime drive so is really for political persons there.
    I’m from Denmark so really to small to do anything, but I think we would be ready to take quite a big step away from US towards Germany. The negative impact of the last few weeks are hard to explain but I think we lost trust in the US as a people not just a few persons.

      Poland needs to give Germany a couple of kicks in the arse, “go, rearm, no we don’t mind you having a strong military we mind you not having one let’s go kick Russian asses”. France has been anti-atlanticist for basically ever, they’re the ones constantly pushing for European strategic autonomy. I believe in Poland. They’re Slavs, they can get a rusty motor running.
