European Union / Trump's victory causes uproar in Europe, 27 countries will hold separate summits

European Union: Donald Trump's possible return to the US presidential election has created a stir among EU leaders. European leaders are concerned that there may be many changes in Trump's stance that go against Europe. In such a situation, the leaders of France and Germany have appealed for unity in the European Union, after which more than 50 leaders of European countries organized a meeting. Now, the 27 member countries of the European Union are preparing to convene a summit to assess the impact of Trump's election results on the future of Europe.

Many prominent leaders, including Ukrainian President Zelensky and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, will discuss European-US relations after the results of the US presidential election. This meeting is taking place at a time when the economic crisis is already deepening in Europe. Germany's economic situation is also in crisis, and the political crisis has worsened after German Chancellor Olaf Scholz sacked his finance minister. This has also raised concerns about the upcoming elections in Europe and a possible conflict with radical right-wing parties. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has described these events as making things more serious for Europe. However, the real impact of the US elections will be seen in the future.

Stand of the European Council

European Council President Charles Michel underlined the importance of relations with the US and said that Europe is ready to strengthen it further. A summit of the 27 countries of the European Union is being planned, in which discussions will take place later with the leaders of Britain, Turkey and the Balkan countries. During Trump's election campaign, many such statements came out, which were a matter of concern for Europe. He threatened a trade war with Europe, hinted at ending NATO commitments, and talked about changing Europe's stance in Ukraine's conflict with Russia. All these issues can bring historic and revolutionary results for European countries.

Hungary Prime Minister Viktor Orban, who is a supporter of Trump, recently said that he spoke to Trump on the phone and announced plans for the future. This indicates that Trump's attitude towards Europe may change somewhat, especially in Eastern Europe.

Statement of Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni praised the strong and historic strategic partnership between Rome and Washington. This partnership was under constant pressure during Trump's first term (2017-2021). At that time, the Trump administration imposed tariffs on EU steel and aluminum products, calling them a threat to US national security. Europe and other allies retaliated by raising tariffs on US products. Now, Trump's possible return raises the possibility of significant changes in the EU's trade interests and foreign policy.

What happens next?

The result of the US election points to major changes in Europe in the coming years. Issues such as war in Ukraine and West Asia, migration and climate change could become a big challenge for European leaders. Among the leaders attending the conference is Ukrainian President Zelensky, who will appeal for more help to protect his country from Russian attack. Trump's promise to end the war "within 24 hours" if he becomes president could have serious implications for Europe and global politics.

The challenge for Europe's leaders at this point is to strengthen their position before Trump's arrival and maintain harmonious relations with the US leadership. These issues will be key at the upcoming summit, and will determine the EU's future relations with the US.
