The EU Cybersecurity Reserve is now open to Ukraine, a recognition that Europe’s cyber threat environment is already interconnected. Deeper cooperation with enlargement partners cannot wait until accession, argue @ClotildeBomont & @BojanaZori2.

Europe should focus less on managing Washington & more on building its own credible deterrence. As NATO leaders prepare to meet in Ankara in July, the debate risks once again revolving around a familiar question: how do we keep Donald Trump on board? ➡️ shorturl.at/UgTM6

Ukraine and Moldova today take a decisive step towards joining the EU. Opening the first cluster of EU accession negotiations is a major milestone. Both countries have delivered on difficult reforms under extraordinary circumstances. Their membership will make Europe stronger.

How should Europe respond to the economic & geopolitical risks posed by China? Access to the EU's single market is critical for Beijing. Europe should use that leverage to secure concrete concessions, argue @ruehlig & @Aligarciaherrer. iss.europa.eu/publications/c…

While the West is grappling with internal divergences, Beijing is steadily laying the foundations of an alternative world order, warns @alice_ekman. The #G7 should be a wake-up call.

My quotes on @AJEnglish on FCAS collapse & 🇪🇺 reliance on 🇺🇲 (together e @GuntramWolff & Jamie She's). BLUF: it wasn't a big surprise, it's not decisive for European defence ramp-up, but it does highlight some limits/challenges. Link below @uroobajamal @EU_ISS

Can Europe end reliance on US for security? Despite collapse of fighter jet venture FCAS, there's optimism about the future of Europe’s strategic autonomy, analysts told me. W/ comments by @gspataf95, @GuntramWolff & former NATO official Jamie Shea 👇 aljazeera.com/features/2026/…

🇺🇸 Speaking to @nytimes about US plans to cut NATO forces in Europe, @gspataf95 noted that while each of these cuts can be managed individually, together they represent a significant posture change & pose broad challenges to European deterrence readiness.

“Those who focus solely on keeping Trump on board accept that the American president sets the agenda & dictates the terms. Those who come up with their own plan make European security a European responsibility at last, as it should be.”
Europe must focus on defending itself, not on keeping Trump happy
