NATO is a collective organisation - there is already a common defence. Hard to see how building another would help.

There is a difference. All EU members are not part of NATO and with a common EU defence EU would take the lead, not the US.

But wouldn't the EU-led organisation end up in competition with NATO? It would weaken the existing common defence structure.

Why would it? The US dominance has not weakened NATO so far.

So why not leave NATO as it is? US has every incentive to remain in the organisation. Only time Article 5 invoked was 9/11.

Trump is the short answer. He has questioned both NATO and article 5.

Why reinvent the wheel? NATO has done a superb job at keeping Europe safe.
