U.S. and European interests are 'intertwined', Rubio says

The U.S. has no intention of abandoning its deep alliance with Europe and wants the region to succeed, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Saturday.

"We care deeply about your future and ours," Rubio told the Munich Security Conference.

"We want Europe to be strong. We believe that Europe must survive, because the two great wars of the last century serve, for us, as history's great reminder, that ultimately, our destiny is, and will always be, intertwined with yours."
