Why does the United States need European allies, and why is it
getting more difficult for those allies to partner with Washington
in standing up to China, pushing back against Russia, and pursuing
other common interests around the world? This book addresses the
economic, demographic, political, and military trends that are
fundamentally upending the ability and willingness of European
allies to work with Washington. Brexit and its impact on
Britain’s economy and its military, Germany’s seemingly
relentless economic and political rise, France’s continuing
economic malaise, Italy’s aging population and its withdrawal
from major overseas operations, and Poland’s demographic decline
and single-minded obsession with Russia will combine to make
partnership with Washington nearly impossible. In short, the
constellation of allies and partners the United States has relied
on since 9/11 will look very different a decade from now. How
should Washington respond? It doesn’t hold all the cards, but
this book offers an array of practical recommendations for American
leaders. By leveraging these proposals, U.S. policy-makers can
avoid the worst-case scenarios and make the most of limited
opportunities.
