MUNICH, Germany, February 14. Trust between the
United States and Europe is not irreparable and can be rebuilt over
time, California Governor Gavin Newsom, told reporters on the
sidelines of Munich Security Conference, Trend reports.
Newsom expressed confidence in the long-term resilience of the
partnership between the U.S. and Europe.
“I've always maintained a posture of more confidence. I don't
understand this notion, this idea that somehow it's irreparable,
and somehow trust has permanently been broken. It's temporary, and
it will just take time to rebuild trust,” he said.
Commenting on global competition, particularly China’s economic
strategy, Newsom pointed to Beijing’s focus on industrial and
technological strength.
“China's doubling down on statecraft, supply chains, dominating
manufacturing. It's about technology, it's about innovation,” he
noted.
He also addressed U.S. domestic political dynamics, offering his
perspective on the current administration’s positioning.
“The bottom line is that it was a much more constructive speech
from a representative of the Trump administration today than we've
seen in some time,” Newsom said.
