Understanding the Triad: America, Russia, and Europe – Ambassador Jean-Arthur Regibeau, Belgium’s recently retired ambassador to the U.S. and Russia
Just two weeks after Donald Trump’s victory over Kamala Harris, on the 19th November 2024, I sit down with Ambassador Jean-Arthur Regibeau, Belgium’s recently retired ambassador to the U.S. and Russia, to discuss the complex relationship between America, Russia, and Europe.
We cover:
The U.S. Election Outcome: Why Trump’s landslide victory was both expected and surprising.
Why the Democrats Lost: Did they lose touch with ordinary Americans?
What Americans Want from Politicians: The growing divide between the elite and the working class.
Russia’s Political Reality: Is Putin truly in control, and how has Russia changed since the invasion of Ukraine?
The Future of Ukraine: Will the war end in an armistice or victory?
Europe’s Security Concerns: Can Europe stand on its own if the U.S. shifts focus to the Pacific?
NATO’s Changing Role: What does an expanded NATO mean for Europe’s defense?
Cultural Clashes: Woke politics, gun control, and what Europeans misunderstand about America.
Bridging the Divide: The role of curiosity and open dialogue in fostering mutual understanding.
Join us for an insightful discussion on global politics and the shifting dynamics between these three powerful regions.
