Summary

Secretary of State Marco Rubio abruptly canceled a planned meeting with EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas, citing “scheduling issues,” amid rising U.S.-Europe tensions.

Trump’s threats of higher tariffs, marginalization of EU input on Ukraine, and criticism of Europe’s migration approach have strained ties.

In a leaked memo, the administration insisted: “The United States cannot continue supporting a continent that drifts in an authoritarian direction. It’s bad for Europe and bad for us.”

The cancellation shows deepening transatlantic divisions.
