    They let themselves be subservient to the Americans cause they didn’t trust each other (understandable given the shared history of the continent).

    Now that the USA has flipped the switch so dramatically given Trump is unpredictable and incompetent, I hope the Europeans realise they can trust each other more than their far away who doesn’t give 2 shits about them. I’m optimistic but whilst they can do stuff for Ukraine, I’m not sure how they will go about EU reform (if they can even get it done given Orban exists). They need to be bold and I’m not sure they will all be on the same page for that
