50 European leaders assess how Trump will affect their fortunes and seek a common stance on Russia
BUDAPEST, Hungary — Around 50 European leaders on Thursday called for a stronger defense posture across the continent that no longer necessitates a fundamental dependence on Washington as they gave a guarded welcome to incoming U.S. president Donald Trump.
Charles Michel, the council president of the 27-nation EU, agreed that the continent needed to become less reliant on the United States. “Of course he said a lot of things during the campaign,” said Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof, adding they won’t all be appearing in his official policies. “Transatlantic cooperation is of the utmost importance both for the U.S. and European interests.”Rutte, who was Dutch prime minister during Trump’s first presidency, said, “I worked with him very well for four years. He is extremely clear about what he wants. He understands that you have to deal with each other to come to joint positions.
European allies in NATO hope to convince Trump that if he helps to negotiate any peace, it should be done from a position of strength, for both Ukraine and the U.S.
