Many Western countries' concerns about the United States are not an immediate problem. They are worried that no matter who wins this year's election, the United States will pay more attention to "America First" and the so-called "inward-looking" tendency will be more obvious. What should NATO do in this case? And what about Europe?
Political change is the biggest risk to the West's ability to stick to its current policies.
Cui Hongjian, a professor at the Institute of Regional and Global Governance at Beijing University of Foreign Chinese, believes that on the Ukraine issue, there is now a strong pessimism in Europe and the United States, not only because the Ukrainian side did not meet their expectations on the battlefield, but more importantly, there will be many elections in Europe and the United States this year, and the results of these elections may change the so-called position on the Ukraine crisis that Europe and the United States insisted on.
NATO Europe is stepping up to consolidate its current policy and prepare for the worst.
Cui Hongjian, Professor, Institute of Regional and Global Governance, Beijing University of Foreign Chinese: Europe and NATO now want to be able to shift their immediate assistance to Ukraine from short-term to long-term as soon as possible; In view of possible changes in US policy toward Europe and NATO in the future, they are also stepping up some work in order to exert some influence on the United States in advance. Now NATO and Europe, on the one hand, cheering up and appeasing Ukraine internally, on the other hand, are also preparing for the worst, and if all factors develop in their favor, they will further invest in European security.
