Those terms include a revived relationship with Russia and substantial recompense from a Ukraine seen as insufficiently grateful for American support.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">As a result, the allies, if they are still that, resembled ships passing in the night, with President Trump on course to reward President Vladimir V. Putin\u2019s invasion of Ukraine, while Europeans anchored themselves to a refusal to do so.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A U.S.-brokered deal to stop fighting in the Black Sea was reached in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, without a European presence. But it immediately became unclear whether the agreement would be enforced soon \u2014 if at all.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The Trump administration and the Kremlin offered three versions of its terms, as Moscow conditioned the deal on the removal of economic sanctions, a move that requires European support and faces stiff European opposition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In Paris, where European leaders gathered without American officials, the discussion was about how to dispatch an eventual \u201creassurance force\u201d to bolster any Ukrainian truce. But the so-called coalition of the willing began to look more like a coalition of the reluctant. It was unclear which countries would participate and where the troops would deploy. Moscow warned of a direct Russia-NATO military clash if they did.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">After the meeting, President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine, who attended the talks, declared that \u201cnobody is going to give our territory to Putin.\u201d This, he added, \u201cis our common position \u2014 at least those present today.\u201d The United States believes peace without territorial concessions from Ukraine is impossible.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The disagreements between Europe and Washington go much deeper than disputes over Ukraine. Europe is afflicted with vertigo. It is unsure whether Mr. Trump now regards it as a strategic and ideological rival, which would be a world-changing shift, or merely wants Europe to assume its own defense responsibilities. The latter would be a brutal shock, but perhaps an inevitable and manageable one.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThe reconfiguration of the alliance demanded by Trump can feel more like the end of the alliance,\u201d said Michel Duclos, a special adviser to the Institut Montaigne, a research organization in Paris. \u201cThere is no longer even the pretense of a relationship of equals.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The linchpin of the alliance has long been Article 5 of NATO\u2019s founding treaty, which promises that \u201can armed attack against one or more\u201d of the alliance\u2019s member states \u201cshall be considered an attack against them all\u201d and met, if necessary, \u201cby the use of armed force.\u201d But that vow seems shakier than a few months ago.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-5\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Trump has long complained that the United States spends too much on Europe\u2019s security and promised to force European nations to increase their military budgets, which has begun to happen but not to his satisfaction. With the Cold War long gone, he has threatened not to defend NATO allies that don\u2019t pay up. Such threats have escalated in his second term.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">This has led to widespread unease. France is preparing to distribute a \u201cresilience manual\u201d to every household to help citizens prepare for threats, including armed conflict on French soil.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">At the same time, Mr. Macron announced a $2.1 billion plan to modernize an air base and equip it to host next-generation Rafale fighter jets able to deliver hypersonic nuclear missiles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWhat has become increasingly clear is that Trump\u2019s team sees Europe as a parasitic freeloading ally and its liberal democracies as political and ideological adversaries,\u201d said C\u00e9lia Belin, the head of the Paris office of the European Council on Foreign relations. \u201cBut this is so contradictory to everything the United States has stood for that we are bound to ask: Can America really tilt this way?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-6\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The United States has long been an idea as well as a nation. It would be a spectacular inversion of its alliances and values for Mr. Trump\u2019s America to not only set about unraveling the European Union, an alliance he has described as created to \u201cscrew\u201d the United States, but also to celebrate illiberal, nationalist states like Hungary.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-7\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Yet, with Pete Hegseth, the secretary of defense, calling European freeloading \u201cPATHETIC\u201d in a leaked conversation on the Signal messaging app among top Trump administration officials, and with a tone of dismissive contempt for Europe coming from Washington, such an American strategic objective no longer seems far-fetched.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Putin\u2019s nationalism and conservative values appear to hold significant appeal for the Trump administration, perhaps more than the liberal democracies Vice President JD Vance <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/14\/us\/politics\/vance-far-right-germany-munich-afd.html\" title=\"\">assailed<\/a> during a visit to Europe last month for allegedly refusing to listen to voters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cIt seems there has been a seismic change,\u201d Sir David Manning, the former British ambassador to the United States, told the House of Lords this month, alluding to the difficulties of intelligence sharing when there are people in the Trump administration who are \u201clooking for ways to appease Russia.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">These, he said, \u201care not our values.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The Trump administration argues that it has a mandate to push back against what it views as the left\u2019s political correctness and to seek through re-engagement with Moscow an end to a bloody war started by Russia.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-8\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">It will not be easy, given European divisions and budgetary constraints, for the continent to end its reliance on U.S. military might and pursue a program of aggressive rearmament, but over a five- to 10-year period it is conceivable. German rearmament would change the face of Europe; it would certainly cause Moscow to take note.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-9\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">What feels inconceivable to many Europeans, however, is dealing with an America that has become an adversary, whether in the short-term goal of reaching a peace settlement in Ukraine or the longer-term aim of limiting the power and influence of autocrats from Beijing to Ankara.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In the view of Stephen Walt, a professor of international relations at Harvard University, the Trump administration is following a familiar playbook toward strongman rule. \u201cFirst the judges, then the universities, then the press, then the lawyers \u2014 there are no rules Trump is not willing to break,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Nobody, of course, knows what Mr. Trump\u2019s ultimate intentions are, but alarm is widespread in Europe. Ms. Belin said that just as Mr. Trump appears determined to <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/14\/us\/politics\/trump-republicans-congress-power.html\" title=\"\">weaken checks and balances<\/a> at home, he is seeking to replicate that externally, dispensing with any rules-based or values-based order.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-10\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cAnything that is a check on whatever he wants to do on whatever day, including Article 5, is something he may tear up,\u201d she said. \u201cWhat counts in Trump world are power and interests. For Europe the choice may come down to this: Show teeth or give him what he wants.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">For now, on Ukraine, Europe seems determined to show teeth rather than offer Mr. Putin a victory perceived as threatening the entire continent. Beyond that, a great European disorientation is apparent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThe only hope is the American people,\u201d Mr. Duclos said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-798hid
