Europe’s Challenge in Dealing with Trump
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on European and American issues said Trump is making a tactical and temporary retreat in his new presidential term to strengthen the United States from within so that he can carry out more serious attacks and structural disruptions similar to the issue of Canada’s annexation to the United States in the near future.

Europe’s Strategic Independence Overshadowed by Domestic Challenges and Trump’s Policies
Strategic Council Online—Opinion: Over the past three years, Europe has acted during the Ukrainian conflict in a way that has allowed it to pursue disparate policy options, including supporting Ukraine in its conflict with Russia, maintaining the structure of the European security order, and not bringing European military forces into the war. The escalation of military conflicts in Ukraine, the possibility of a reduction in military aid from Washington, and the possibility of a forced ceasefire have placed European governments in a difficult position.
The Fall of Bashar Assad Government and Turkey’s Role and Challenges
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on Turkish affairs said: The power vacuum in the region after the US military withdrawal from Iraq and its intensification after the withdrawal from Afghanistan opened up space for maneuvering by regional powers, especially Turkey.

Ukrainian War and the Widening East-West Divide
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: A proxy war is when two countries fight each other indirectly by supporting the warring parties.

Accordingly, the approach of the United States and Europe, in the form of NATO and their all-out support for Ukraine, has all the hallmarks of a proxy war against Russia.
The Prospect of Escalating Tensions between China and Taiwan
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on East Asian issues said: The recent tensions between China and Taiwan are not new. The differences between China and Taiwan are rooted in the history of this land and the Indo-Pacific equations that America and the West are trying to fuel.

Europe’s Strategic Independence Overshadowed by Domestic Challenges and Trump’s Policies
Strategic Council Online—Opinion: Over the past three years, Europe has acted during the Ukrainian conflict in a way that has allowed it to pursue disparate policy options, including supporting Ukraine in its conflict with Russia, maintaining the structure of the European security order, and not bringing European military forces into the war.

Ukrainian War and the Widening East-West Divide
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: A proxy war is when two countries fight each other indirectly by supporting the warring parties. Classic examples from the Cold War era include the Congo crisis in the 1960s and the Angola crisis in the 1970s when the Soviet Union and the United States supported each of the warring sides in a civil war with money, weapons, and sometimes soldiers, but never directly engaged in the war themselves. Accordingly, the approach of the United States and Europe, in the form of NATO and their all-out support for Ukraine, has all the hallmarks of a proxy war against Russia.
