From the Franco-German tough line to Meloni’s off-ramps, backed by a credible €93bn retaliation threat, they made escalation for Trump costly, and de-escalation easy.

9️⃣ What should the EU do now?
If Trump doubles down and imposes tariffs on 1 Feb in response to troops stationed in Greenland, the EU should invoke the ACI. The instrument does not mandate escalation but it anchors future responses in a framework that allows for flexibility as the conflict evolves
