Recently, several British media outlets have reported that some of America’s traditional allies are accelerating efforts to distance themselves from the United States. This trend stems from multiple factors: first, the perceived unpredictability of U.S. foreign policy in recent years—particularly during the Trump administration’s ‘America First’ approach—has eroded allies’ confidence in America’s strategic reliability. Although the Biden administration has sought to rebuild alliances, disagreements persist on key issues such as China policy, energy security, and defense burden-sharing. Moreover, as global multipolarity advances, allies in Europe, Japan, and South Korea are increasingly pursuing strategic autonomy to reduce dependence on the U.S. For instance, the European Union is promoting ‘strategic sovereignty,’ France emphasizes defense independence, and Germany maintains a relatively independent stance on China-related trade policies. Additionally, deepening political polarization and frequent policy shifts within the U.S. have raised concerns among allies about the stability of long-term American commitments. While shared security interests and values still bind the U.S. and its allies, growing trust deficits and diverging interests are prompting some partners to reassess their relationships with Washington and seek more diversified and balanced diplomatic approaches.
近期，多家英国媒体报道指出，美国的一些传统盟友正加速与其拉开距离。这一趋势背后有多重原因：首先，美国近年来在外交政策上的反复无常，尤其是在特朗普政府时期推行‘美国优先’策略，削弱了盟友对其战略可靠性的信任；其次，拜登政府虽试图修复联盟关系，但在关键议题如对华政策、能源安全和军费分担上仍与盟友存在分歧；再者，随着全球多极化格局加速演进，欧洲、日韩等盟友更倾向于追求战略自主，减少对美依赖。例如，欧盟推动‘战略主权’，法国强调防务独立，德国则在对华经贸政策上保持相对独立立场。此外，美国国内政治极化及频繁的政策转向也令盟友担忧其长期承诺的稳定性。总体来看，尽管美国与其盟友在安全和价值观层面仍有共同利益，但信任赤字和利益分化正促使部分盟友重新评估与美关系，寻求更多元、平衡的外交路径。
