US President Donald Trump via Associated PressMany Europeans now see Donald Trump’s US as a threat to the continent, according to a new poll. Between 11 and 31% of respondents said they see the US as a “major” threat to Europe. This rises to between 34 and 61% if including those who said the States was “major or moderate threat” to the continent. Fewer than half in any country (27 to 44%) believe that even if Europe got its act together it could stand up the States. The Trump administration also warned about Europe becoming less white in a new national security plan in December, while expressing wider fears about “civilisation erasure”.
