Europe can no longer rely on the US to finance its defense": former British Prime Minister Starmer called for more focus on Europe than on the US. "Europe needs a common security system as much as it needs a single market, he said, and Britain should play a central role in it. Starmer emphasized that the US has made it clear that it does not intend to finance the security of European allies anymore. "The old order no longer exists," he warned. At the same time, Starmer pointed out that this does not mean the loss of the significance of relations with Washington. According to him, the military, intelligence and defense alliance between Britain and the US remains too strong to talk about weakening. However, Europe must take much greater responsibility for its defense and security."
