The US’ new approach to Ukraine: how to make sense of it
Today Radio Schuman explores the implications of the US administration’s approach to ending the war in Ukraine with Kirill Shamiev, an expert on civil-military relations and Russian domestic politics at the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR).
The discussion takes in US president Donald Trump’s decision to engage in bilateral negotiations with Russia, divergence from European allies in UN votes, ambiguity over security guarantees for Europe, and the critical minerals deal with Ukraine initially rejected by Kyiv.
Radio Schuman also discuss the presentation of the so-called omnibus package and the clean industrial deal by the European Commission, as well as those European countries which have witnessed the greatest decrease of greenhouse emissions.
