In the coming week, the world reacts to Donald Trump's presidential win.

Israel faces a deadline to increase aid to Gaza, and the annual UN climate change conference,

COP29, begins in Azerbaijan.

It's November 7, 2024 in time for the world next week. I'm Bob McMahon.

And I'm Carl Ann Robbins.

Bob, but let's start with what else the results of the U.S. election.

This week, the world watched as Trump scored a really remarkable comeback

to become the 47th president of the United States. Foreign leaders and the rest of us have spent

the year imagining the consequences for good and ill of the second Trump term. Remember the talk

of the NATO summit this past July? It was all about so-called Trump-proofing the alliance, though I'm really not sure that's possible. So what's the global response

so far now that Trump is on his way back to the White House? Well, it's very interesting that

there was an already scheduled European summit taking place in Budapest. And guess what the

favorite place of Trump's? Exactly. Well, guess what the topic,

one of the primo topics at that summit was this morning. And that was the Trump election and what it

means. And there were views across the spectrum there. It could be an interesting quirk that Hungary

happens to be the rotating president of the EU at this point, given its leader, Viktor Orban is one of the strongest proponents of Donald Trump, as well as one of the strongest

sort of go-betweens, shall we say, between Russia and European countries, and famously and proudly

illiberal Democrat. So let's see whether he finds a way of translating, let's say, EU-crust-cutting cooperation with the United States in a way that other European leaders might have more difficulty with.

That could be fanciful.

It's just an interesting sort of thought exercise.

But this was a meeting of European Union leaders.

It was NATO leaders.
