It's about time! In my opinion Europe was a bit asleep about the realities of the world.<p>Very grateful to all what the US is doing, but in the end this is a war within Europe, and we must know we can't always count on others to be the main contributor of something that is happening "in our neighbourhood".<p>Also, Europe must really start to consider itself as a world power. Maybe I'm too paranoid, but the democracy within US seems very fragile to me (the 2 party system, all the extreme nutcases that live within).<p>The Ukraine war has shown us how important it is to defend democracy within and outside of our own borders. And that 'power' cannot always be only manifested through diplomacy.
