After the meeting, Prime Minister Tusk stressed that Europe is facing a fresh challenge today: "We will all look after each other. It seems that it has yet reached everyone that the position of president Trump and the Washington administration is clear that the military vacation for Europe is over and that Europe must take more work for its own security."
