WEF LIVE: Can Europe Defend Itself? | Mark Rutte | World Economic Forum
LIVE from Davos World Economic Forum: NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte headlines the urgent session "Can Europe Defend Itself?" amid Trump’s tariff threats, Greenland standoff, and Russia’s Ukraine grind, questioning if EU nations can shoulder 3% GDP defense spending without US security blanket. Rutte, fresh off leaked texts with Trump and Macron coordination calls, warns fragmented European armies lack unified command, air defense gaps expose NATO’s eastern flank, and 23/32 allies barely hitting 2% targets as Putin rebuilds forces post-Kursk failures. The Dutch leader pitches "strategic autonomy" balancing US ties while accelerating F-35 fleets, hypersonic missiles, and Baltic drone walls.
