Prof. Dr. Ulrich Schlie analyzes the Ukraine war as a conflict on the brink of an unbalanced and imposed peace - with far-reaching consequences for Europe's stability. In the midst of a profound upheaval in the international order, he sees the transatlantic alliance in particular at risk and Europe strategically unprepared. While Donald Trump is deliberately exploiting European weaknesses and Vladimir Putin is profiting from Western tensions, the EU is in danger of becoming a geopolitical loser. Schlie criticizes the lack of unity in security policy and calls for a rethink. Europe must finally grow up strategically in order to remain capable of acting in the emerging world order.
