European leaders are ramping up preparations for a future where the United States may no longer guarantee NATO's security, amid repeated threats from former President Donald Trump to withdraw American support.
The European Union is testing its own mutual defense mechanisms, including Article 42.7 of the Lisbon Treaty, and conducting crisis simulations to ensure collective security among member states. These moves reflect growing anxiety over the reliability of U.S. commitments and a push for greater European strategic autonomy. Experts warn that while EU defense clauses are important, they are not a full substitute for NATO's military capabilities.
The shift is already impacting political, security, and even travel sectors across Europe.
