Could US midterms impact the EU? Transatlantic ties hit new low after Trump-Putin diesel deal
Transatlantic relations have reached a new low under President Trump's second term, with recent actions including a controversial diesel deal with Vladimir Putin and calls for Ukraine to change leadership.
From the EU's perspective, the second Trump presidency has felt even more destabilising than the first. From making the false claim that the EU was set up to "screw" the United States, to slapping tariffs on European goods, to making territorial claims on Greenland, to doing a diesel deal with Vladimir Putin and telling Ukraine to get a new president, Donald Trump has more than ruffled feathers on this side of the ocean.
He has shaken the very foundations of the historical transatlantic relationship, with potential implications for the upcoming US midterms and their impact on EU relations.
