Vance calls US and Europe ‘real friends’ but says Trump wants self-sufficiency on defense – live

Vice President Vance emphasized the strong friendship between the US and Europe while acknowledging Trump’s push for greater self-reliance in defense. He humorously referenced his contentious speech at the Munich security conference, suggesting US-Europe relations had strayed slightly. Meanwhile, Biden criticized Trump’s approach to Russia as "modern-day appeasement," and Britain engaged in talks with US officials over Trump’s proposed 100% tariff on foreign-produced films, aiming to safeguard its film industry.
