NATO, Trump, and a Fracturing West—What Comes Next?
from The Smerconish Podcast · host Michael Smerconish
Admiral James Stavridis, former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO, joins Michael to tackle the biggest global questions of the moment: Will NATO survive the Trump era? Why Greenland has become a strategic flashpoint in the Arctic—and how climate change is reshaping global power. Stavridis breaks down the roles of China, Russia, Canada, and Europe, weighs in on Trump’s fixation with Greenland, and explains why the Arctic may define the next geopolitical era. Plus, an unforgettable behind-the-scenes story involving President Obama, Queen Elizabeth, and a very well-timed martini. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
