The Real Reason Behind Trump’s Nasty Breakup with Europe
The podcast episode titled "The Real Reason Behind Trump’s Nasty Breakup with Europe," features a conversation between Jonathan Freedland and US military scholar Joseph Stieb.

The episode also highlights the Trump administration’s national security strategy blueprint, which suggests that democracy may not remain a central priority for the White House as it had been under previous administrations.
