Tusk said that the future of Europe does not depend on the US elections

The Prime Minister of Poland, Donald Tusk, said that the future of Europe depends on the countries of the continent itself, and not on the elections in the United States. According to him, the era of geopolitical providence has come to an end.

“Harris or Trump? Some argue that the future of Europe depends on the American elections, while it largely depends on us. As long as Europe eventually comes to level and believe in himself. Regardless of the outcome, the geopolitical era is over,” he wrote.

US elections

Let’s remember that the US presidential elections will take place this Tuesday, November 5. The main candidates for the post of head of state are the Democrats Kamala Harris and the Republican Donald Trump. It is difficult to predict who will become president, as opinion polls show almost equal chances of victory. In particular, Reuters wrote that Harris had almost lost her advantage over Trump.

We also note that, according to Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala, Europe will not be a priority for the United States after the presidential elections. And this will happen regardless of who wins.

The issue of the elections also affects the Russia-Ukraine war. Bloomberg recently wrote that support for Ukraine could decline regardless of who ends up in the White House.
