French President Emmanuel Macron has called for a fundamental shift in European policy, arguing that the continent must “wake up” to a new reality where the US, Russia, and China are all categorically opposed to European interests.

Speaking in Athens during a discussion with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis on Friday, April 24, Macron described the current period as a “unique moment” of geopolitical pressure.

He emphasized that the tension with Washington is an “historical trend” likely to persist beyond the term of US President Donald Trump. “We must be a little more self-confident and propose our own agenda,” Macron stated, urging European nations to act with greater unity to protect their own interests.
