European Central Bank President: US policy is erratic, Europe has opportunities to seize

On the 18th local time, the official website of the European Central Bank stated that the President of the European Central Bank, Lagarde, recently said in an interview with French media that the recent strength of the euro against the US dollar is due to the unpredictable policies of the United States, including tariffs, which present an opportunity for Europe. Lagarde stated that the situation in the economic, political, and defense sectors, which are considered the three pillars of international cooperation, changed immediately after the new US government took office. Rather than a threat, this can be seen as an opportunity. Currently, Europe has seen challenges to the rule of law, judicial system, and trade rules in the United States, and uncertainty continues to exist. Europe is viewed as a stable economic and political region with a strong currency and an independent central bank. European leaders must seize this opportunity and accelerate the process of deepening EU cooperation.
