For Trump it might be about an an attempt to end a war. For Putin it is a about a deal on who is the future boss in Europe.

With a 2nd #Trump presidency, Europe & Germany must brace for changes. Key areas impacted: NATO #security, #Ukraine support, #trade (#tariffs), tech policy (#China) & democracy (rise of illiberalism).

What will a new Trump Administration mean for Germany? @Josef_Braml @thousandfriend @BrandonBohrn discuss on To The Point: youtu.be/gshUEZukI8s?feature…
What a night. I had a chance to join SWR earlier this morning to discuss the results of the US elections and the implications for Europe. Available below.
Tough result, but head up, press on, and let’s get to work on the challenges that lie ahead. swr.de/swr1/swr1leute/praesi…
Also joined @DeutscheWelle yesterday to discuss the same topic. Many of the points remain relevant, especially on the future of transatlantic trade and security relations. Available here: youtu.be/j-BoJ18Unhc?si=k4PM…

There you have it. At @BertelsmannSt we read all of the “Mandate” and distilled how Europe should (have) prepared for things to come - culling recommendations from close readings of AFPI,
Project2025, Claremont, etc. As I told @GuyChazan @FT - we could be, should be more ready.

A pleasure catching up with @gmfstokes at Amerikahaus Berlin this evening to discuss the upcoming US elections. The only people missing were @gesine_weber and Martin Quecenz to complete the #transatlantictrends dream team 😉

The German Nein on EV tariffs is a powerful exhibit that Draghi's diagnosis is right: If not even the Commission and the largest auto manufacturer see eye-to-eye on how to deal with 🇪🇺's car industry, then the EU has no consistent industrial strategy. And that has to change.
Great to join the IHK Ostwestfalen in Bielefeld to discuss how the upcoming 🇺🇸 elections could impact German businesses. With over 150 production sites and 600+ trade links, the U.S. remains a key partner for East Westphalia.

Draghi’s analysis of Europe’s competitiveness problems is spot on.
Here is why Germany should take a leading role in developing Europe’s future economic strategy in times of geoeconomic and geopolitical conflict👇
