- Meanwhile, in the European Union, leaders are calling with unprecedented urgency for the creation of an EU military.
- In the Middle East, activity from the United States is making America’s allies increasingly question the country’s priorities and reliability.
- We also discuss massive war games underway in Russia, the EU’s answer to China’s Belt and Road, more fallout from America’s Afghanistan withdrawal, and another milestone by Japan’s military.
