European politicians and diplomats had already prepared for changes to their relationship with the US in the event of a second Donald Trump presidency.
Now that the Republican candidate has chosen Ohio Senator JD Vance as his running mate, those differences appear even more stark on prospects for the war in Ukraine, security and trade.
A vocal critic of US aid to Ukraine, Mr Vance told this year’s Munich Security Conference that Europe should wake up to the US having to “pivot” its focus to East Asia.
“The American security blanket has allowed European security to atrophy,” he said.
Imagine being a Ukraine citizen!!! For them it’s literally life and death on a daily basis.

You took it too far bro
I don’t think they are worried about the next US presidency though? That’s the context of this comment chain. They are being fucked by the US regardless of the president that gets elected. All the other comments were about people that will be affected by it in a medium to major way.
Yep. I think I got the wrong end of the stick.
