Few in Europe will miss Donald Trump.

After four years of chaotic relations, Joe Biden is eagerly awaited by Europeans.

If some countries, like Germany, dream of a return to former relations, they risk being disappointed, the United States is looking more than ever towards Asia and less and less towards Europe.

Moreover, European citizens have understood it, they are more and more numerous (67%) according to a recent poll to estimate that they can no longer count on Washington in the event of a major crisis.

An opportunity for Europe to assert itself as a power and no longer through its market alone.
