The European Union is standing at a crossroads. It has not only been sidelined in the U.S.-led negotiations on the Ukraine crisis, but is also coming to terms with the reality that it must take responsibility for its own defense.

Can it finally achieve strategic autonomy and act as one? Is the transatlantic rift merely a temporary blip or the beginning of a deeper and more permanent separation?
