Eu doesn’t have the weapons to replace the US, much less do anything more. All action by EU and European Nato is at best a political stunt to make US and Trump to change their minds.
The European Union as a whole already spends more on defense than Russia or China, it is just a matter of coordinating spending by unifying efforts

Just taking Germany+France+Italy+Poland+Spain already comes more than what Russia spends
Nor am I a military expert, I do not know how reliable they are that data or I will discuss the efficiency of the expense, but I am sure to have 27 army generates many inefficiencies that could be resolved by centralizing things
