"textContent": "\n\n\nAs Washington walks away from its postwar, European leaders—from **Emmanuel Macro****n** to **Friedrich Merz** —signaled something unexpected: they may be ready to move forward without the United States.\n\nOn GZERO World, **Ian Bremmer** sits down with former US Ambassador to NATO **Ivo Daalder** to unpack what could be a historic turning point in the transatlantic alliance. “No, it’s not going to be the same as it’s been in the past decades,” Daalder says. “That’s gone.” But he argues this isn’t the end of the relationship, it’s a rebalancing that Europe should have begun years ago after what he calls decades of “unilateral disarmament.”\n\n* * *\n\nThe Russian threat, he warns, is far from over. Moscow’s economy has been transformed into a war machine, and even if the fighting in Ukraine pauses, Europe will face a battle-hardened adversary on its doorstep. Meanwhile, Western production shortfalls and a US retreat from military aid have left serious gaps in Europe’s defenses. Is this the moment Europe finally stands on its own?",
