Episode 23: NATO at the Brink: Hilary Fordwich on the Fracturing Transatlantic Alliance

from Dangerous Intellectuals: The Podcast

At this year’s Munich Security Conference, Secretary of State Marco Rubio just dropped a bombshell speech that sent shockwaves through the hall — openly declaring the era of unlimited American security guarantees is over and demanding Europe finally pay its own way. The reaction was electric: stunned silence from some delegations, furious pushback from others, and a very public fracture in the transatlantic alliance that has defined the postwar world. The old bargain is dead, and the new rules are being written in real time.Hilary Fordwich — one of the clearest, most incisive transatlantic voices on both GB News and Newsmax — is the perfect guest to break it all down. In this urgent one-hour episode she delivers the unfiltered analysis: what Rubio’s speech really means, which European leaders are already preparing for a post-American NATO, and what the fracturing alliance will cost both sides of the Atlantic. If you want to understand exactly where the West stands right now and where it’s headed next, this is the conversation you cannot miss.https://hilaryfordwich.strelmark.comhttps://dangerousintellectuals.comDuration: 56:48
