「Finnish leader says the brutal truth is Ukraine shows Europe isn't 'strong enough' without the US」:  いや～　ストレートですね。　

Finland's prime minister said Ukraine showed Europe was too reliant on the US for security.

日本も同じようなものです。

I must be brutally honest with you, Europe isn't strong enough right now:　The United States has given a lot of weapons, a lot of financial aid, a lot of humanitarian aid to Ukraine, and Europe isn't strong enough yet.
"We have to make sure that we are building those capabilities when it comes to European defense."　Sanna Marin said.

実際、日本にもこの発想が欲しいです。

"We would be in trouble without the United States," she added.
ー roughly $19.1 billion since Russia launched its invasion in late February.

凄まじい金額。

the European Union's foreign-policy chief, Josep Borrell, questioned how the US would've handled the Ukraine war if former President Donald Trump were in office instead of President Joe Biden.

確かに、これは興味深いもののPresident Donald Trumpなら、そもそも戦争になっていないでしょう。

Trump was often critical of US security commitments in Europe and frequently chastised NATO allies over their lower levels of defense spending compared with the US.

でも、各国が米国レベルで軍事費を使ったら、米国が焦るでしょう?

Along these lines, Borrell said Europe needed to take more steps to ensure it's not so reliant on Washington.

日本も他人事ではありません。

"What would have happened if, instead of Biden, it would have been Trump or someone like him in the White House?

となった場合には、ウクライナに限らず、どうなるか見当も付きませんからね。

あまり相手を信じすぎるのは危険です。
