Europe finally ready to fly solo? đȘđșđĄïž
âFinlandâs President Alexander Stubb just voiced the thought thatâs been lingering in the halls of Brussels for years: Europe can defend itself without the U.S.
âThis isn't a "breakup" with Washingtonâitâs a wake-up call for European self-reliance. Hereâs the reality:
âThe Power is There: With a massive combined economy and advanced military tech, Europe has the "bones" of a superpower.
âThe Catalyst: The war in Ukraine ended the era of "outsourced security."
âThe Goal: Strategic autonomy. Itâs about being a partner to the U.S. by choice, not out of total desperation.
âThe Bottom Line: Donât just listen to the rhetoric. Watch the defense budgets. If Europe actually spends what it promises, the global power balance changes forever.
