Summary

In this episode of our pop-up series on the U.S. elections, guest hosted by David M. Herszenhorn, we look at what's at stake for Europe and the impact on transatlantic relations. Former German ambassador to the U.S. Wolfgang Ischinger and Radosław Sikorski, Polish member of the European Parliament and former defense minister and foreign minister, discuss how the election is bound to impact Europe — can the transatlantic relationship survive four more years of Donald Trump? And what would change or, perhaps more interestingly, not change if Joe Biden wins? POLITICO Europe's Sarah Wheaton and Matthew Karnitschnig join David to debate Trump's impact on multilateral institutions and his handling of global crises. The regular EU Confidential podcast will be back in your feed on Thursday — and Campaign Confidential is with you every Tuesday all the way through to Election Day. Hosted on Acast.
