French President Emmanuel Macron said the American security umbrella is a thing of the past and that Europe needs to build its own credible defense strategy if it wants to survive.
French President Emmanuel Macron said Europe can no longer rely on the US for its security needs and must build its own credible defense.
In a speech setting out his vision for Europe, six weeks ahead of European Parliament elections, Macron said the continent may need to produce its own anti-missile shield, long-range surface missiles and other items to build a sufficiently robust defense.
“We need to build a strategic defense for Europe ourselves,” the French president said at Paris’s Sorbonne University on Thursday. “Europe must defend what’s important for her, with allies or alone.”
Cheers!
