New US national security strategy codifies a seismic shift in transatlantic relations under Donald Trump, say experts

The president of the European Council of national leaders, António Costa, has warned Donald Trump’s administration against interfering in Europe’s affairs, as analysts said the US national security strategy represented a seismic shift in transatlantic relations.

Released on Friday, the policy paper claims Europe faces “civilisational erasure” because of migration and a censorious EU “undermining political liberty and sovereignty”. Confirming not just the Trump administration’s hostility to Europe but its ambition to weaken the bloc, it says the US will “cultivate resistance” in the bloc to “correct its current trajectory”.
