Key Points:
- European governments view President Trump's attempt to acquire Greenland and his threat of punitive tariffs as a breaking point, signaling a likely permanent rift between the U.S. and its traditional allies.
- European officials privately describe Trump's actions as erratic and unprecedented, prompting calls for the toughest retaliation and a coordinated shift away from reliance on the U.S. as a trade and security partner.
- A coalition of European and allied nations, including non-EU members, has formed an effective multilateral group supporting Ukraine, fostering close cooperation and trust independent of the U.S.
- European leaders maintain active communication through informal channels like group texts, enabling rapid coordination and signaling a move toward a new security framework potentially excluding NATO's traditional U.S.-led structure.
