Contributing sentiments towards policy:

59% : If his administration really wants Europe to secure itself, it should get behind EU efforts to stimulate European defence production.
57% : If European leaders fixate on appeasing Trump, they will win a pyrrhic victory.
56% : In return, Trump should agree to stay within Nato to enable a responsible security transition over the next decade.
32% : Trump reflects this problem, but he didn't cause it.
12% : When Trump contemplates not defending a Nato ally under attack, his scepticism better indicates how Americans will act in a crisis than President Joe Biden's talk of a "sacred obligation".
