From the New York Times, I'm Rachel Abrams. This is the Daily.

In a matter of just a few weeks, the Trump administration has remade the global order.

They've taken a hard line with allies like Mexico and Canada and Ukraine.

They've warmed up to adversaries like Russia.

And now, a trade war is on the horizon with Europe.

Today, my colleague Mark Landler on the alliance with Europe that seems to be fracturing and what all of it means for the new world order.

It's Friday, March 14th.

So, Mark, it has felt like the story of the past few weeks, which we've been talking about a lot on the show, is the pretty fundamental remaking of the global order.

And we've talked about the impact of President Trump's tariffs on Mexico and on Canada, and we've talked about his efforts to take over Greenland.

But it feels like one of the biggest ruptures in all of this is the seeming breakdown of the relationship with Europe.

And you have been covering Europe and the White House for decades.

So I'm just really curious what you are making up this moment.

Well, you called it a seeming breakdown, which actually might underplay what's going on in the transatlantic relationship right now. Just since President Trump took office, you've seen him

openly undermine the NATO alliance. You've seen him threaten that the U.S. will no longer

provide a security umbrella for Europe. You saw him essentially side with Russia against Ukraine.

You know, you alluded to the tariffs that he's imposed not just on Mexico and Canada, but now on the

European Union. So when you add all this up,

it's really causing Europeans to question the very survival of this alliance that has

characterized the post-World War II era. And, you know, of course, the implications of this

are enormous. They extend well beyond Europe, because if you think about it, the

transatlantic alliance is really the bedrock arrangement that has shaped the entire world order

for decades, not just militarily, strategically, but also in terms of trade and economic relations.
