Brussels – The United States will soon have a new president — Donald Trump. The former US president made his way to the White House after a controversial campaign against Democratic candidate Kamala Harris.
Trump’s victory, driven by a platform of bold rhetoric and a promise to redefine America’s global stance, has revived memories of his first term from 2017 to 2021 – an era that strained transatlantic relations.
In Europe, leaders are now trying to figure out what this means for security, the economy, and the relations with the United States.
To get a better understanding on the topic, the European Newsroom spoke to Dr. Ian Lesser, distinguished fellow and adviser to the President at the Brussels office of the German Marshall Fund of the United States.
