Garton Ash warns Europe faces 'era of humiliation' without unity

Historian Timothy Garton Ash argues Europe's internal divisions and lack of strategic autonomy risk reducing it to a pawn of great powers, warning of an 'era of humiliation' if it fails to act. The piece is an opinion essay, not a factual report, but reflects a growing elite discourse on European strategic decline. It matters as a signal of shifting political sentiment in Europe regarding its global standing.
