This CSS Analysis argues that the crises on Europe’s periphery, the US' strategic pivot towards the Asia-Pacific region, and the challenges being mounted by political forces within NATO and EU states have put an end to the post-Cold War European security order. Indeed, since the assumption that security rests on a foundation of shared norms and the expansion of institutions such as NATO and the EU is now invalid, it's time to 1) reassert the continuing importance of the US to European security, 2) intensify the coordination that already exists between Europe’s main security actors; and 3) develop a strategy that reflects the common and unique challenges that exist on the continent’s eastern and southern flanks.
