America has a new plan for foreign policy. This plan has caused different reactions in Europe and America. The U.S. government released a new security document. This document is much friendlier to Russia. Russia likes this change very much. However, people in the European Union are worried. They fear this change will weaken unity among Western countries. This unity is important for the conflict in Ukraine.

The new strategy is different from before. It does not call Russia a threat to the U.S. Instead, it wants to find stability with Russia. The document says Europe has big challenges. It also suggests NATO should not keep growing. Resolving the conflict in Ukraine is a core U.S. interest. The document seems to blame the EU for past problems.

Russia’s reaction was very positive. A Kremlin speaker said the changes match their views. He called it a good step forward. This is because the document agrees with Russia's old ideas. Russia has long criticized NATO's growth.

On the other hand, Europe is concerned. Officials and experts are unhappy with the document. They think its language sounds like Russia's. Their main fear is that this change will break Western unity. This unity is strong since Russia invaded Ukraine. They worry that America's new plan might make allies weaker. This could put Ukraine in a difficult spot.

This new plan comes at a difficult time. Diplomatic talks for Ukraine are happening now. Europe must continue to work together. Ukraine needs strong international support. This U.S. change will be a big topic for European leaders. They will discuss how to handle this new situation.
