The provided sources examine the Five Eyes (FVEY) intelligence alliance, a long-standing partnership between the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, emphasizing its historical foundations in shared trust, technology, and asymmetric contributions. They highlight how a potential second Trump administration's "America First" policy, characterized by transactionalism and a distrust of its own intelligence agencies, poses an existential threat to this trust-based alliance. Specifically, the sources explore scenarios ranging from a hollowing out of the alliance's core functions, with a potential formalization of a "Four Eyes" caucus excluding the U.S., to a complete dissolution, compelling non-US members to diversify intelligence partnerships and enhance sovereign capabilities to mitigate risk.
