THE OLD IS DYING AND THE NEW CANNOT BE BORN YET

Europe faces a triple challenge strategically: 1.) The relative retreat of the “west” along with demographic realities reduces its overall presence in the strategic picture. 2.) The future of the transatlantic relation is cloudy unless Europe contributes significantly to dealing with the alliance’s challenges. 3.) The problems arising from the ambitions of two neighbors one of which Turkey, is a NATO ally. Is strategic autonomy the key to these challenges?
