Rubio said the US does not want Europe to be a vassal, but "a strong ally."
US President Donald Trump's Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, has just said that they do not want Europe to be a vassal, but a partner. He made these statements during his trip to Central Europe, after speaking yesterday at the Munich Security Conference in friendly language, but maintaining US ideas.
Listening to them, today comes the European response, after three days in Munich studying the situation in the world. Indeed, in recent months, Kaja Kallas, European Secretary-General for Foreign and Security, has responded to criticism from the Trump administration.
"When I hear the criticism of Europe, I wonder what the alternative is," he said, defending European values.
It has also become clear in Munich that the Greenland issue has been a red line. 'It is unacceptable to ask for a territory belonging to another country, and we must be very clear about that,' said the Norwegian finance minister and former head of NATO.
Rubio, on the other hand, has tried to close the gap these days. "We don't want Europe to be dependent on AEb, we want to be your ally."
