Tyrants are forever: Has Europe missed its moment?
Om avsnittet
Under the jackhammers on Schuman, Brussels is filling back up for the rentrée — and the fault lines are showing.
Host Sarah Wheaton is joined by colleagues Clea Caulcutt, Nick Vinocur and Paul Dallison to unpack a cliff-edge week: France’s confidence vote on an austerity budget that could topple Prime Minister François Bayrou and push Paris back into chaos; Europe’s next moves on Ukraine; and Ursula von der Leyen’s big address in Strasbourg on the EU’s place in a shifting world. It’s a tough speech to deliver, with few clear wins to trumpet.
Plus, our resident comedian brings von der Leyen bingo back: Place your bets on how many times she will say “competitiveness.”
