What this episode covers
2024 will be a year of crisis and change—the Russian aggression against Ukraine, conflict in the Middle East and Africa; the continuing effects of climate change; and the biggest election year in history. Mathew Burrows and Julian Mueller-Kaler of the Stimson Center’s Strategic Foresight Hub join the podcast to discuss the greatest risks to the transatlantic partnership this year: the impacts of presidential candidate (and potential winner) Donald Trump’s “anti-globalist” agenda, a potential stalemate in Ukraine, increasing cooperation between China and Russia, and European instability and internal divisions. And more importantly, how can the United States and Europe act now to ensure their security and interests in a destabilizing global order?
