US Democrats, including prominent critics of Donald Trump like Gavin Newsom and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, will attend the Munich Security Conference to urge European leaders to resist Trump's policies. The Democrats aim to counter what they view as Trump's damaging approach to international relations. Their presence comes as European leaders are divided on how to engage with Trump, with some advocating for a more assertive stance and others prioritizing maintaining his goodwill, particularly regarding European security. The US delegation will be led by Marco Rubio. The conference takes place amid concerns about Trump's past actions, including insulting the EU and excusing Vladimir Putin, leading to questions about shared values between the US and Europe.
