Marco Rubio came to the Munich Conference with a much softer style than JD Vance a year ago, but Trump’s message to Europeans has not changed: there is a civilizational decline in Europe, caused by excessive immigration and only far-right, nationalist and populist parties can stop it. Since the Greenland issue, Europe has become much more assertive in its dialogue with Washington and, this time, it was the German Chancellor who reminded Trump that the United States “is not powerful enough to go it alone”. In Expresso da Manhã, Paulo Baldaia talks to Henrique Burnay, consultant in European Affairs and columnist for Expresso
When a year ago it listened and shut up what JD Vance said about the lack of freedom of expression and European civilizational decline, Europe gave the green light for the White House to spend almost an entire year bullying European democracy. Only when Trump took a big step, threatening to take Greenland by force, did Europe decide to put its feet on the wall and tell Washington that if that happened it would be the end of NATO.
In this daily podcast, Paulo Baldaia talks to journalists from the Expresso newsroom, international correspondents and commentators. From Monday to Friday, analysis of the news that survives the froth of the days. Listen to other episodes here:
