Marco Rubio, the U.S. Secretary of State, spoke at the Munich Security Conference. He told European leaders the U.S. and Europe are 'made to be together' but warned the 'old world is gone' and Europe must change.
European leaders reacted cautiously. Germany's Friedrich Merz said a 'ditch' had opened between Europe and the U.S. and called for repairing trust. Hillary Clinton clashed with a Czech leader over Trump's policies at the conference. Rubio also met with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Munich.
After his speech, Rubio visited Slovakia and Hungary, which are considered allies of Trump. He skipped a separate meeting in Munich with European leaders focused on Ukraine.
