04.03.2025Day Trump Wall Made Europe Rearm
Trump's suspension of military aid to Ukraine triggered two major responses. Von der Leyen announced "ReArm Europe," an €800 billion defense initiative, while Zelensky signaled readiness for immediate truce and rare earth minerals agreement.

Trump's new agricultural tariffs against Canada, Mexico, and China caused market turmoil, with European exchanges losing €367 billion. Milan closed -3.4%, with Stellantis particularly affected.

Two PD MEPs, Moretti and Gualmini, faced immunity removal requests in the Qatargate investigation, leading to their self-suspension from the EU parliamentary group.

Pope Francis's condition remained stable after yesterday's respiratory crises, continuing high-flow oxygen therapy without mask. The Vatican maintained reserved prognosis but reported no new crises during the day.
