Is Europe’s anti-missile project with Ukraine ‘insurance’ against unpredictable US?

Ten European nations, including France, Germany, and Britain, have signed a joint declaration in Paris to establish an Integrated Anti-Ballistic Missile Coalition. This initiative, which includes Ukraine, is viewed by analysts as a strategic "insurance" policy for Europe. The move comes as European countries anticipate a potentially less predictable security role from the United States. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had urged European allies to expedite efforts to bolster Kyiv's air defenses ahead of winter, as the conflict with Russia continues.
