Donald Trump increasingly threatens to withdraw the United States from NATO, putting Europe in a complex situation. Political scientist Marius Ghincea, from ETH Zurich University, discusses in an analysis for “Adev\u0103rul” about European solutions and the complicated relationship with the USA and China.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

The transatlantic relationship is going through a process of forced reassessment, after being “torpedoed” across the Atlantic by President Donald Trump. This time, the bone of contention is Iran. Trump blames the Europeans for their lack of action and sends increasingly aggressive messages suggesting that he would consider dissolving NATO.<\/p>\n\n

On the other hand, Europeans refuse to take part in a war which, they believe, does not concern them, especially since the United States initiated the entire military operation without consulting with Brussels, Paris, or Berlin.<\/p>\n\n

\n

“The United States and European countries are, once again, in disagreement over the situation in the Middle East and the continuation of American intervention in the Near East. This disagreement is not the first in the history of the alliance, as we obviously have the well-known episode from 2003, when Europeans, speaking of France and Germany in particular, opposed the intervention in Iraq, because they did not see it as a legitimate or successful intervention. And history has shown that they were right”<\/em>, says Ghincea.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

However, the analogy with 2003 stops at the level of disagreement, as the political context at the White House has radically transformed. Even though the United States of America is still led by a Republican president, Donald Trump is totally different from Bush.<\/a><\/p>\n\n
