A majority of Europeans support the creation of a European army, with Romania showing the highest approval at 82%. The GLOBSEC Trends 2026 survey indicates that nearly three-quarters of respondents favor this initiative amid concerns over U.S. troop withdrawals from Europe. While support for a European army stands at 71% across the surveyed countries, 78% still wish to remain in NATO.
