So he’s willing to be dependent on Russia, especially as EU loses the reliability of one of its greatest historical allies, which also is the same one with the biggest arsenal.

If it’s a matter of how quick it can be done, I understand that for some countries 2027 is too soon to adapt to such a big change, and wouldn’t mind some form of leniency on the matter for such cases. But if by the time the contract ends in 2034 Slovakia doesn’t think of an alternative along with other countries relying on Russian gas, it may as well invite Russia into it.

We’re also not in an ideal position in terms of autonomous defense, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t find ways to be a more self-reliant continent who trades with others not because it needs, but because it wants.

I’m sure Vance would definetly know. He has his home TV, after all.

You can just tell he and the rest of Trump’s cheerleaders are trying to undo any progress made during the Vatican meeting.

“Mr. President, don’t fall for their manipulation, this war will never end, they wanna take us for a ride”. You just know it.

Start giving Trump what he wants and he’ll just take, take, take until there’s nothing left.

And when we’re in a worse position than if we had stood our ground he’ll just label EU a sucker and go about his day.

Never give in to bullies. Even China knows that.

Pascal Soriot said innovation in pharmaceuticals ‘has mostly been funded by the US’

Mr. Dr. Chad here does know that Europe hasn’t invested as heavily in that sector because there was no critical need for it, right? Which now has changed.

That’s the whole point of stable economic relations like the one we had with the US until now, because there’s no point to every country producing everything as if they were alone when they can import whatever they don’t have from somewhere else.

Anyways, go and hang out with your fascist buddies if you want, as they continuously implode your whole argument of “US did more” by driving away scientists and other talent, as well as defund several critical health-related research projects.

Meanwhile, we’ll do our own thing and slowly but surely make up for lost time and misplaced trust.

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out, champ. I hear these days the US isn’t the safest place for health/pharma CEO’s tho.

I’m sure Trump will call it defiance, maybe even “illegal”, in his own deranged view of his position. Imagine Europe throwing a tantrum over the NAFTA or USMCA agreements.

I however, choose to see it for what it is. Sovereign freedom of choice, and prioritization of reliable partners. It has to do with the US, and we can’t deny it, but it doesn’t have to be solely because of them.

This is something we should have worked on since always, given the UK is still part of the European continent and not America. Regardless of past disagreements, here’s to hoping this time we learn to rely on ourselves without dependency on other world powers.

Europe has been weakened decades ago and needed assistance after being ravaged, but we can stand on our own now, without being subject to the whims and votes of another culture we don’t even have say in.

This shock was needed for Europe to wake up, and Trump shouldn’t be surprised that his aggressive approach will only cost him the same allies that prioritized and put the US first, giving it the global power it had until now, contrary to his “we’re being taken for a ride” claims.

Leading by example. Yes.

Show class and integrity, don’t just argue about the lack of it in others. Do what’s right, regardless of what others may think, regardless of the waves of negative opinions trying to dissuade or turn you against your own ideals by acting rashly and out of sheers spite.
