Summary: In 2025 Europe was navigating an era of turbulence. America’s diminished interest in Europe’s security had sharpened the threat from Russia, and made clear to Europeans the urgency of strengthening long-neglected defences. The EU was trying to facilitate that process: on March 19th the Commission released a White Paper for European Defence, together with detailed proposals to implement the ReArm Europe plan that had been announced by Commission President Ursula von der Leyen two weeks earlier. The Commission’s objective was to boost Europe’s defence spending by up to €800 billion. |
