Britain and France were surprised at having to convince the US of
the need to intervene in Libya in 2011. The French intervention in
Mali in 2013 confirmed the picture; Washington will support
European action, but only if and when Europe takes the initiative.
Just as the focus of American strategy is shifting to Asia and the
Pacific, vital interests in the European neighbourhood require
resolute action. Autonomy is being forced upon Europe, but it is an
autonomy constrained by a lack of means as, following the financial
crisis, defence budgets across the EU member states are slashed.
The ramifications of the Arab Spring and the crisis in Ukraine pose
challenges of an enormous scale for the EU and its members. Peace
Without Money, War Without Americans is the double challenge that
European strategy-makers face. What can be expected from strategy
at a European level? Can Europe cope?
