NAS Lecture Series: Trump-Proofing Transatlantic Security
Prof. Dr. Gerlinde Groitl, University of Freiburg:
Trump-Proofing Transatlantic Security: Challenges for Germany, NATO and the EU
Donald J. Trump’s presidency (2017-21) was a rough ride for Europeans: Trump called NATO obsolete, repeatedly scolded allies, questioned US security guarantees, and cozied up to leaders in Moscow and Beijing. A few months ago, he even suggested to give Russia a free pass to attack financially “delinquent” NATO members. Unsurprisingly, the scenario of Donald Trump`s potential return to the White House sends shockwaves through Europe at a time of heightened geopolitical and geoeconomic conflict. The lecture analyzes the severe security challenges Germany, NATO, and the EU currently face and discusses options to weather the storm.
