Although Fareed Zakaria is no authority, I do believe that the European Union of free nations do not look for leadership to Donald Trump. It is fair to say the American president is a joke-a-minute for Europeans. He had no credibility while a candidate for the Republican nomination. The USA is now irrelevant for Europe which is disadvantaged having allowed ourselves to count on America for our protection during the Cold War. It is time for the European Union to rely on itself alone.
And like that agreement if you want it you pay for it! Stop expecting the united states to pay your bills.
Not all states of the European Union (EU) are members of NATO and these members owe nothing to the USA.
Germany was in no position after WWII to decide anything being occupied in the west by the Americans, British, and French while the east was under Moscau. France has tried to have an independent voice on defense but this has met with limited success because NATO was dragging the French into all kinds of foreign entanglements. It is time for a European Union realignment, to beef-up the EU battle groups as an integrated European Union Armed Forces, paid for and sustained by the EU alone.
#1 Which nations in the E.U are not in NATO....
#2 What enemy is it that NATO countries need to prepare to fight against???????
Answer #1 - EU nations not in NATO:
Austria, Finland, Ireland, Malta, Cyprus, and Sweden are in the EU, but not in NATO.
Answer #2 - Potental EU enemy:
States which were under the Soviet Union but are now members of the EU are more threatened by Russia than those in the west. Of particular concern are those with populations of Russian speakers whom Vladimir Putin likes to champion. Therefore, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania are on alert. Poland is watching what happens to its neighbor, Ukraine.
Turkey is not in the EU but as a member of NATO it has gone unpunished for its continued occupation of northern Cyprus, an EU member.
