The European Union is not giving up on our closest, deepest, and most important partnership with the United States.
In times of turmoil, predictability, the rule of law, and willingness to uphold the rules-based international order become Europe's greatest assets. We are committed to doing whatever it takes to defend our boring democracies because boring brings certainty and safe haven when [the] rules-based order is questioned elsewhere.
Trump is right in saying that Europe needs to take more responsibility for its security… Today, as high-intensity war rages on our continent, there is a clear understanding that Europe can and must take greater responsibility for its security. It must carry its fair share of burden alongside its NATO allies, and the United States in particular.
We are also committed to supporting Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression until a just and lasting peace can be achieved. Ukraine is central to Europe's security considerations, and it's a vital part of Europe's security shield… History taught us that demonstrating strength and determination is the best way to deter aggression. And we will do just that.
Advanced technologies like AI and quantum computing... are foundational assets for our future competitiveness. Europe has fallen behind [the] US and China when it comes to certain advanced technologies, and we are determined to catch up as a strategic priority.
