Can Europe rise to the challenge? Trump embraces his traditional allies
Do they stand firm or bow to pressure? Europe is facing a clear message: Donald Trump’s administration is not only promoting LNG exports. The US requires the continent to adapt to the new reality. From walking away from multilateral efforts on climate change and global tax standards to charting its own course on regulating technology, particularly artificial intelligence, Washington is clarifying its priorities. Trump’s homegrown artificial intelligence initiative demonstrates America’s dominance by using deep pockets and abundant cheap energy to lead the race for digital transformation. Meanwhile, Europe faces difficult questions. Can its leaders muster the collective strength to preserve consensus-based models of prosperity and chart their own path forward? Or will they be forced to follow the path of the most powerful nation on the planet?
