European leaders met in Paris for emergency discussions on the implications of the U.S.'s recent diplomatic moves regarding Ukraine, which have left them questioning their alliance with the U.S. President Macron’s conversation with Trump raised concerns following the latter's willingness to negotiate directly with Russia, sidelining Europe. This shift has shocked leaders as they grapple with their security and defense strategies, indicating a potential pivotal moment where Europe might need to bolster its own defenses independent of American support.
