People are often unaware of one fact: the balance of power is changing. What seems powerful and untouchable today can very quickly become irrelevant and powerless.
For decades, Europe has been encouraged by the US not to invest in defense because it suited America. But this same Europe can become a more powerful military power than the US within 5 to 10 years. We are numerically stronger, and we will not lag behind economically for long. When the EU changes its priorities and when European countries start investing seriously in defense, everything will change.
With policies like those that Trump likes, the US will lose its importance, and the EU could take over its previous role in every respect.
I know that now, from today's perspective, this seems ridiculous to many, but 5 years ago it seemed ridiculous when I said that lockdowns and Covid measures would one day become an embarrassment to those who advocated them and that life would return to normal.
The only thing we can always bet on: no force is eternal, the balance of power and strength will change.
