Regarding your comment that "Europe is finally establishing its military independence from Washington," you should read Owen Matthews' essay in The Spectator, "The EU’s ‘re-arming’ plan is unserious." https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/the-eus-re-arming-plan-is-unserious/

Au contraire as they say. So, uh, €800 billion poured into the defense sector over the next four years? Nope. France and Italy and Spain have balked at €5 billion.

"Overpromising and underdelivering has become something of an EU speciality."

Keith is right.
