European Leaders Face Challenges Ahead of High-Stakes Summit Post-Trump Victory
Following Donald Trump’s election victory, European leaders are set to convene in Budapest for a crucial summit under strained circumstances. Major countries like France and Germany are dealing with internal crises, complicating efforts to present a united front. The meeting, which includes leaders from EU states and beyond, will prioritize discussions on military support for Ukraine amid concerns about potential shifts in U.S. policy under Trump. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s close ties with Trump and his ambitions for influence add another layer of complexity to the summit’s agenda.
