Recently, President Joseph R. Biden Jr. Marsy European allies to resist the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Illustrated the point that the top American diplomat, R. Nicholas Burns, recently summarized As the way the United States win in the global competition for power and prosperity: “Be nice to your allies.”

President Trump obviously has a different position. His antagonism to Europe has been public for decades, looking at allies as economic competitors and geopolitical parasites. And his decision on Thursday to impose a controversially calculated tariff on American partners, including Ukraine-but not Russia or North Korea-it has made its willingness to break the trans-atlantic alliance that mainly maintained peace in Europe in Europe.

Combined with the request of Mr. Trump for NATO allies to spend up to 5 percent of their gross domestic product on the army and his expressed desire to deprive the NATO territory from Denmark, Tariff’s allies point out long-term damage to American relations with Europe, which is unlikely to be fully repaired.

“Tariffs are another addition to the perception and estimation in Europe that now under Donald Trump, they are not only an unreliable partner, but also a partner who cannot be believed in any way,” said Guntram Wolff, an economist and former director of the German Foreign Relations Council. “It changes 80 years of post -war history, when the Transatlantic Union was the nucleus of the Western world and the global multilateral system.”

As much as Brussels tried to preserve some of these key relationships, Mr. Wolff added: “It cannot be supported by the global system.”

Mr. Trump’s efforts to transform the global order also seem to use Russia, NATO’s main antagonist, potentially weakening Kremlin’s opponents in the rest of Europe, although they hit oil prices on Friday on Friday.

“There seems to be no order in the disorder,” Said Ursula von der LeyenPresident of the European Commission, Thursday. “There is no clear path through complexity and chaos that is created as all American trade partners are affected,” and “hurt the most vulnerable citizens.”

Europeans are increasingly aware that Mr. Trump, Nemoders, and even encourages more ideologically compatible and loyal advisers in his second term, intends to follow their intentions in order to distance the United States from Europe. But “the intensity, speed, aggression and imperialism of this administration surprised some people,” said Mark Leonard, director of the European External Relations Council.

Many European governments thought they could move with Mr. Trump’s demands with transaction methods, such as buying more weapons and liquefied natural gas-large American exports-and larger cargo divisions. The development of the past weeks shows the boundaries of this approach, including the uneven application of Trump’s Tariff administration on Britain and the European Unic and its request for Ukrainian minerals in exchange for years of military assistance.

“The challenge of Europe is how to deal with the predatory America, which is willing to use the vulnerability of the Allies to extort them, whether it is a mineral agreement in Ukraine or tries to attach Greenland or in the open way to which Trump is trying to share Britain with the EU with different trade agreements,” said Mr. Leonard.

For now, the European Union is kept together, as Mr. Trump has applied the same 20 -percent tariffs to all his 27 Member States, including more ideologically friendly countries such as Hungary, Slovakia and Italy. But Washington can also decide to use differentiated tariffs in certain sectors to press individual countries, such as Denmark, because of questions like Greenland.

Generally the assumption that the tariffs were introduced into the agreement, as the son of Mr. Trump Eric called in the message On X. “I would not want to be the last country trying to negotiate a trade agreement with @realdonalddtrump,” he wrote. “The first to negotiate will win – the last will absolutely lose.”

Sophia Bezch, a German analyst at the Carnegie Endowment in Washington, sees two fundamentally different messages of Trump administration. “It is not clear whether this is an introductory offer for negotiations or whether they have really remodeled the world, without interest in repairing it,” she said. “Different people around Trump follow different things.”

Tariff’s questions and security are different, but barely separated, said Mrs. Bezch and others, showing Mr. Trump’s willingness to rudely use American power, and even smoothly against friends, their economies and poor, who most likely suffer from inflation and higher consumer taxes.

State Secretary Marco Rubio tried to be convincing in Brussels last week, at a meeting of Foreign Minister NATO, as he mixed alleviation with a warning. In the media he denied “hysteria and hyperbole” and insisted that Mr. Trump supports the Alliance and her commitment to the collective defense. “President Trump made it clear that he supports NATO,” Mr. Rubio said. “We’ll stay in NATO.”

But not any NATO.

Mr. Trump expects the European Allies to take over the main responsibility for their own safety and for Ukraine, as America turns to Asia, Mr. Rubio warned. “He is against NATO who has no possibilities that should fulfill the obligations that the contract imposes on each Member State.”

However, the economic influence of the tariff, which is expected to cause inflation and lower economic growth, will only make it difficult for European allies to increase military consumption at 3.5 percent of GDP’s goal that NATO considers its top in July, let alone 5 percent Mr. Trump requested.

For Germany alone, a rich country, the influence will be considerable, and the German Finance Minister Jörg Kukies estimates a 15 -later reduction in German exports to the United States. He says that Germany will continue to try to negotiate better conditions with Washington, even when Brussels is strongly revenge, if carefully for the block. However, the German Economic Institute estimates that the possible cost of these tariffs in Germany alone at about 200 billion euros ($ 218 million) in the next four years.

Europeans will now seek other markets and more free trade contracts, such as those with Canada and Mexico, said Maggie Swithek, economist and director of research at the Milken Institute. “There is still room for cooperation with USA and US companies as we think about how to move this new situation and a new American theory,” she said.

But for Moscow, which makes a little unprepared trade with the United States, the Tariff of blowing to US allies was another gift. Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev Good luck at the XO damage done.

Referring to the old Chinese proverb, he said that Russia “would sit by the river, waiting for the body of the enemy to perish. The decaying corpse of the EU economy.”
