9:04 am
a new discussion. european leaders have been talking about this for years. but i would say that 2 events in the more recent history have really underlined the sense of urgency for this matter. and for these discussions to take concrete shape. and one was of course, the presidency in america under donald trump, where europeans essentially lost one of the most important partners. and the fear here is that the biden administration, which everybody welcomes and calls a very good friend and ally, could not when the next election in the u. s. in that picture might change again. and the 2nd big event was of course rushes of invasion of ukraine. so this is something where baltic states in particular countries that share a border with russia saying we need to become more independent. nanina ukraine has stressed that it needs western weapons immediately and permanently what can ukrainians take away from this comp, this conference so far?
