  • European Union leaders gather on Monday to discuss how to bolster the continent's defences against Russia and how to handle U.S. President Donald Trump after his decision to impose tariffs on goods from Canada,

EU leaders are set to convene to discuss bolstering defense strategies against potential Russian aggression and to strategize on handling a possible second term of Donald Trump, whose previous tenure saw tensions with European allies over defense spending and trade. The meeting, prompted by recent comments from Trump suggesting he might not defend NATO allies not meeting spending commitments, aims to address the implications of such a policy shift. Key topics include increasing defense budgets, enhancing European defense capabilities, and ensuring the EU's strategic autonomy.
