Recent threats made by Donald Trump toward Greenland and U.S. intervention in Venezuela have put European unity and the foundations of transatlantic relations to the test.

In the face of annexation threats, trade pressure, the disclosure of private messages, and issues related to raw materials, the European response now seems to be taking shape: anti-coercion instruments, alternatives to American digital giants, and numerous other levers are being considered and have already been activated.

In this context, the discussion with expert Amy Greene aims to address several key questions:

• How have relations between the European Union and the United States evolved? What continuities and what ruptures can be identified?

• Security guarantees and the role of NATO, trade policy, tariffs, and challenges to democratic norms: what possible European responses exist?

• Are we witnessing a structural and lasting transformation of the transatlantic relationship?
