America is Back. Is Europe Back Too?

Abstract

Within a resilient transatlantic alliance, political leadership and security forces can respond successfully to any crisis imposed, but without resilience the alliance will remain vulnerable to malign influences that seek to divide, sap physical and societal strength, and undermine the ability to respond to challenges—politically, economically, and militarily. Unity in a resilient security environment, with economic and political unity, is critical for defending against authoritarian regimes that aim to “divide and conquer.”
