Europe and Asia Respond to Trump’s Return

  • Summary

  • On Monday, European leaders watched the inauguration of President Trump from Davos and fretted about his threats to impose sweeping tariffs, his demands for significant increases in European defense spending, and the possibility he may shift America’s stance toward Ukraine. He already has followed through on withdrawing from the Paris climate agreements and the World Health Organization. Soon after the inauguration, newly sworn in Secretary of State Marco Rubio met with foreign ministers of the Quad countries - Australia, India, and Japan – an indication that countering China’s influence remains a top priority for Trump. How are European and Asian nations adapting to shifting geopolitical and economic dynamics in a new Trump era? Ken Moriyasu, Catherine Philp, and Prashant Rao join Ivo Daalder on this week’s World Review to analyze how Europe and Asia are responding to Trump’s return to office. They’ll also discuss the Gaza ceasefire and whether it is likely to hold.
