While Mr. Vance\u2019s speech was met with stony silence, Mr. Rubio\u2019s address prompted bouts of applause and laughter, and drew a brief standing ovation.But as Mr. Vance did last year, Mr. Rubio issued warnings about the threat the Trump administration says mass migration poses to European civilization and the need to reform post-World War II institutions like the United Nations.\u201cWe in America have no interest in being polite and orderly caretakers of the West\u2018s managed decline,\u201d he said.European leaders expressed relief at Mr. Rubio\u2019s speech, but they also said it changed little about what they see as Europe\u2019s need to rebalance its relationship with the United States, becoming more independent militarily.After the address, Prime Minister Keir Starmer of Britain said it would be a \u201cmistake\u201d to \u201cget in the warm bath of complacency.\u201d In his own speech, he said: \u201cAs Europe, we must stand on our own two feet.\u201dUrsula von der Leyen, the president of the European Union\u2019s executive arm, said she was \u201creassured\u201d by Mr. Rubio\u2019s speech but insisted in her own address that \u201cEurope must become more independent \u2014 there is no other choice.\u201d.Here\u2019s what else to know:Ukraine: President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine told the conference his country would hold elections after a cease-fire \u2014 not before, despite American calls for elections. Mr. Zelensky has been president since 2019, and elections have not been held since Russia\u2019s full-scale invasion in 2022. He also repeated that Ukraine needed strong security guarantees before agreeing to any end to the war. \u201cWe hope President Trump hears us,\u201d he said.

The Trump administration is trying to negotiate an expanded U.S. presence in Greenland or greater official American control of the territory, which is an autonomous part of Denmark, and which Mr. Trump has repeatedly said the United States should own.Nuclear weapons: American and European officials stressed this week that the United States was still committed to its decades-long posture of providing a nuclear shield for its NATO allies in Europe. But Europe is making a backup plan. Mr. Merz said Friday that Germany had begun talks with France, a nuclear power, on establishing a nuclear deterrent for Europe that would not depend on America.

Navalny: Britain, France, Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands said on Saturday that the Russian opposition leader, who died in prison in 2024, was most likely poisoned by a toxin, contradicting Russia\u2019s claims that he died of natural causes. Yulia Navalnaya, Mr. Navalny\u2019s wife, told reporters in Munich that the joint statement of the five countries validated the assertion that President Vladimir V.

The Financial Times, citing Western and Ukrainian officials, reported on Wednesday that he would announce on Feb. 24 plans to hold both a presidential election and a referendum on a peace deal by May, although no deal has been reached. Mr. Zelensky said the first time he heard about that plan was in the Financial Times.Mr. Zelensky was elected in 2019, and his five-year term officially ended in May 2024. Elections were suspended under the martial law that was declared after Russia\u2019s full-scale invasion almost four years ago. The Ukrainian leader has come under increasing pressure from both Russia and President Trump to hold elections. Mr. Trump referred to Mr. Zelensky as a \u201cdictator without elections\u201d in a social media post a year ago.\u201cGive us two months of cease-fire, and we will go to elections,\u201d Mr. Zelensky said on Saturday, adding that without a cease-fire, it would be difficult to ensure that soldiers, for instance, could vote. \u201cThat\u2019s it. Give us cease-fire.\u201dVideoCreditCredit...Bayerischer Rundfunk, via ReutersIn addition, Mr. Zelensky pushed back on a U.S. proposal that Ukraine give up parts of its eastern territory that aren\u2019t currently controlled by Russia, to create a demilitarized free economic zone that would serve as a buffer between the two countries. The United States has been pushing that idea as part of trilateral peace negotiations that started in January and are set to resume on Tuesday in Geneva.Russia controls about 80 percent of the eastern Donetsk region, and it is demanding that Ukraine surrender the whole region to achieve peace.

They had watched the speech nervously, afraid that Mr. Rubio might reprise Vice President JD Vance\u2019s scorching takedown of the continent\u2019s governance at last year\u2019s conference.\u201cI was very much reassured by the speech of the secretary of state,\u201d said Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission.But while Mr. Rubio\u2019s tone was more flattering and less caustic than Mr. Vance\u2019s was last year, the content of his remarks was enough to sustain unease, and to underscore that the trans-Atlantic relationship was still in the midst of fundamental change, a year into President Trump\u2019s second term.Gabrielius Landsbergis, a former Lithuanian foreign affairs minister, said Mr. Rubio had painted over cracks that Mr. Vance created last year. But while he was more polite, Mr. Landsbergis said, the message was not fundamentally different.\u201cIt is now clear that this is all about interests, not common values,\u201d Mr. Landsbergis wrote in a statement. \u201cAnd do we actually have common interests?\u201dAs Mr. Rubio spoke, audience members huddled outside the conference hall seemed to visibly relax, chatting calmly after a period of apprehensive silence.Carl Bildt, a co-chairman of the European Council on Foreign Relations, wrote on social media that Mr. Rubio had \u201cavoided the worst of JD Vance.\u201dStill, he said, the speech \u201cpresented a view of the world and the challenges ahead\u201d that was very different from the European perspective.A panel discussion shortly after Mr. Rubio\u2019s remarks demonstrated how drastically the Trump administration had changed America\u2019s relationship with its partners on the continent. European leaders on the panel said they needed to be less dependent on the United States, to work more closely together, and to firmly protect their own belief systems.\u201cIn today\u2019s fractured world, Europe must become more independent \u2014 there is no other choice,\u201d Ms. von der Leyen said. She later said the European Union would deepen ties with its \u201cclosest partners, like the U.K., Norway, Iceland or Canada.\u201dThat message of teaming up was echoed by Keir Starmer, the British prime minister, in his remarks at the conference.He said that \u201cas Europe, we must stand on our own two feet,\u201d emphasizing that Britain must build stronger links to the European Union, which its people voted to leave in 2016.Mr. Starmer added that Britain would show that \u201cpeople who look different to each other can live peacefully together \u2014 that this isn\u2019t against the tenor of our times,\u201d he said. \u201cRather, it\u2019s what makes us strong.\u201dThe British leader also emphasized that Europe should not take too much comfort from Mr. Rubio\u2019s remarks.\u201cWe shouldn\u2019t get in the warm bath of complacency,\u201d he said. \u201cThat would be a mistake, and it would be a particular mistake for Europe.\u201dShow moreFeb. 14, 2026, 5:37 a.m. ET6 hours agoEdward WongReporting from MunichVideoMarco Rubio Calls a World Without Borders a \u2018Foolish Idea\u2019Speaking at the Munich Security Conference, Secretary of State Marco Rubio denounced the idea of a united, global citizenship but also said the United States and Europe \u201cbelong together\u201d as a civilization.CreditCredit...Johannes Simon\/Getty ImagesWhen Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke on Saturday of the United States being descended from Europe, he drew applause from the mainly European audience here at the Munich Security Conference.\u201cFor us Americans, home may be in the Western Hemisphere, but we will always be a child of Europe,\u201d he said. He stressed that countries on both sides of the Atlantic were \u201cheirs to the same great and noble civilization,\u201d and mentioned the cultural gifts that Europe had bestowed on the world \u2014 from ancient universities to the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. That line got laughs.But his speech also conveyed the message that any ruptures between the United States and Europe were because of the Trump administration\u2019s view that Europe had strayed too far from that shared culture and vision.He voiced far-right ideas in a few parts of his speech, in particular in a line in which he talked about the \u201ccivilizational erasure\u201d that threatens the United States and Europe. He spoke several times of the dangers of \u201cmass migration\u201d and the need for nations to place much stricter limits on who enters their borders and settles in their lands.This was a central theme in the speech that Vice President JD Vance delivered in Munich last year, which alarmed European officials and drew scorn.Still, the diplomatic tone that Mr. Rubio struck sent a ripple of relief through the main conference hall. Mr. Rubio came to Munich aiming to reassure European nations that the Trump administration did not intend to widen schisms that have emerged in relations in the past year. He told reporters in Washington on Thursday that he thought his speech would be \u201cwell received.\u201dMr. Rubio also spoke in vague terms of a shared future. He told the Europeans that \u201cour destiny together awaits.\u201d He said he wanted to make it clear that \u201cAmerica is charting a path of a new century of prosperity, and that once again we want to do it together with you, our cherished allies and our oldest friends.\u201dMr. Rubio said the U.S.-Europe alliance cannot allow itself to be crippled by the \u201cmalaise of hopelessness and complacency\u201d and paralyzed by fears of climate change and new technology.And he emphasized the need for greater defense spending by European nations, an idea that over the last year has become one that European leaders are voicing as well.\u201cWe want allies who can defend themselves so that no adversary can ever be tempted to test our collective strength,\u201d Mr. Rubio said. That same demand is being made here at the conference by Elbridge Colby, the Pentagon\u2019s undersecretary of defense for policy. Though it is one that first alarmed European officials when the Trump administration began emphasizing it early last year, the notion is now being embraced across this continent. That is also partly because of Russia\u2019s persistence in carrying out its war in Ukraine.European officials say their countries need to be self-sufficient because Washington\u2019s foreign policy sometimes directly threatens European interests, most notably in President Trump\u2019s recent insistence that the U.S. government play a significant role in the control of Greenland, an autonomous territory of Denmark.Mr. Rubio did address some specific shared security issues, including efforts to push Russia to end its war in Ukraine.\u201cWe don\u2019t know if the Russians are serious about ending the war,\u201d he said when asked about the conflict in a brief onstage chat after his speech. \u201cWe\u2019re going to continue to test it.\u201dHe said the United States plans to continue to pressure Russia with economic sanctions and to sell weapons to Europe that will ultimately be used by Ukraine in its defensive efforts.European officials, however, are wary of Mr. Trump\u2019s history of voicing admiration for President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia.Mr. Rubio also said the United States and European nations should try to carry on positive conversations with China, given China\u2019s status as a superpower, without compromising their national interests. Mr. Trump halted his trade war with China because of the leverage wielded by the Chinese government on processed critical minerals and rare earths.\u201cIt would be in geopolitical malpractice to not be in conversations with China,\u201d Mr. Rubio said. The two nations can find areas of cooperation, he said \u2014 a message that he eschewed in his previous job as a U.S. senator, when he advocated hard-line policies on China. But Mr. Trump often speaks of seeking a partnership with China, and he and Xi Jinping, the leader of China, are planning for a summit in Beijing in April.After Mr. Rubio\u2019s speech, Wolfgang Ischinger, the chairman of the security conference, asked the American diplomat onstage whether he had heard the room\u2019s collective \u201csigh of relief.\u201dShow more", "ai_headline": "Live Updates: Munich Security Conference", "ai_simplified_title": "Rubio Addresses Munich Security Conference on US-Europe Relations", "ai_excerpt": "Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered a speech at the Munich Security Conference emphasizing the ties between the US and Europe, while also echoing concerns about mass migration.
