Abstract

Током претходне деценије ЕУ се сусрела са изазовима на више фронтова: економска криза и спори опоравак, избегличка криза, тероризам, Брегзит, одсуство ефикасности своје спољне и безбедносне политике. Последњих година, ЕУ је уложила нови напор да дефинише своју сврху и положај у међународним односима, желећи да стратешку аутономију. То практично значи да постане чинилац са способношћу да поставља своје приоритете и доноси одлуке. Како је улога Сједињених Држава у безбедности Европе још увек преовлађујућа, односи ЕУ-САД имају посебан значај на ту амбицију ЕУ. У овом тексту пружамо преглед односа између ова два чиниоца са фокусом на првој години председничког мандата Џозефа Бајдена, и дајемо аргументе да кроз сложену интеракцију ЕУ тежи да дефинише своје политике независно од Сједињених Држава, желећи да прошири простор за маневар и акцију.
