The time for reflection is over, and the call is clear for Europe to step into a future where it is not merely a follower of U.S. interests but an independent actor on the global stage. The stakes are high—not just for European nations but for the principles of democracy, security, and international cooperation in a rapidly changing world.
In closing, the current discourse around Europe’s security and autonomy is not just a political necessity; it represents a foundational shift towards a future where Europe truly acts as a unified entity capable of making decisions that reflect its interests and values rather than subordinating to a distant ally. The resolution of this quandary may very well define the continent’s legacy in the face of growing global uncertainties.
