‘THE WEST NO LONGER EXISTS’: EU Chief Von Der Leyen Declares End of U.S.-Europe Alliance
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has delivered a bold statement: “The West as we knew it no longer exists.” In a powerful new interview, she blames President Trump’s aggressive tariffs—20% on EU goods and 25% on cars—for collapsing the once-strong transatlantic alliance.
As EU-U.S. trade tensions grow, the EU is pivoting toward new global partners.
Von der Leyen says 87% of the world’s trade now happens outside the U.S., marking a clear shift in economic power.
Is the era of a united West truly over?

The Trump administration has agreed to pay $5 million to Ashli Babbitt’s family, settling a $30 million wrongful death lawsuit. Babbitt, a Trump supporter and Air Force veteran, was fatally shot by Capitol Police during the January 6 Capitol riot. Though the officer was cleared of wrongdoing, Babbitt's family argued she was unarmed and received no warning. Trump has cast her as a martyr, while Capitol Police expressed disappointment, maintaining the officer acted in self-defense with no laws broken.

U.S. intelligence suggests Israel may strike Iranian nuclear sites this year, despite President Trump’s ongoing diplomatic talks with Tehran. Military activity and intercepted messages indicate Israel is preparing for possible action as negotiations stall. Trump issued a 60-day ultimatum to Iran, keeping military options open. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu faces pressure to block a weak deal without alienating Trump. With Iran’s defenses weakened and enrichment continuing, the risk of unilateral Israeli action grows, potentially disrupting U.S.-Iran diplomacy and escalating regional tensions.

Trump has unveiled the ambitious $175 billion "Golden Dome" Missile Defense System, promising near-total protection for the U.S. homeland. Designed to intercept hypersonic missiles, nuclear warheads, ballistic threats, and even space-based attacks, the Golden Dome is being hailed as America’s next big leap in defense. Trump says the system will be fully operational within three years and calls it the fulfillment of Ronald Reagan’s long-held missile shield vision.
