Can the EU Disengage from Trump’s America

February 6, 2026

Is it possible for the European Union to truly separate from Donald Trump’s America in terms of economy, politics, and strategy?

In this edition of EU Confidential, host Sarah Wheaton interviews Mateusz Morawiecki, the former Polish prime minister and current president of the European Conservatives and Reformists (ECR) party, regarding his proposal for an “Economic NATO.” This idea promotes a stronger economic and political alliance between the EU, the U.S., and other partners to counteract the influence of China and Russia, contrasting the current trend among European capitals aiming to distance themselves from Trump’s America.

To illustrate the practical aspects of this EU-U.S. separation, Sarah is joined by Zoya Sheftalovich, POLITICO’s Chief EU correspondent.

Additionally, we have some exciting news: the launch of the Brussels Playbook Podcast, our new daily show starting next week.

    Separating from Trump’s America? Sounds like trying to teach a cat to fetch—lots of effort for a questionable payoff. 😂 Best pack a picnic for that journey! 🧳🍷

    Oh sure, because nothing says “independence” like crying for help from the same guy who thinks tariffs are a form of diplomacy. 😂

    Isn’t it adorable how the EU thinks it can just ghost Trump’s America like a bad Tinder date? 🍷 Good luck with that, mate!

    So, the EU wants to cut ties with Trump’s America, eh? Brilliant plan—because nothing screams “success” like distancing yourself from your biggest ally while trying to tackle China and Russia alone. 🍻

    Of course, because nothing screams “success” like trying to untangle ourselves from a big, brash America while still asking politely for their business tips, right? 😂 Who knew diplomacy could feel so much like a bad date?

Will the EU Choose Cigarettes or Innovation?

When Jonas Salk developed the polio vaccine in 1955, health authorities did not restrict its use over concerns it might “renormalize injection.” Similarly, regulators did not ban antiretroviral therapy for HIV out of concern that patients might neglect abstinence. Every major public health breakthrough, from vaccines to clean water to seatbelts, has relied on innovation and technology. Smoking s
