In this episode, we are looking into the biggest topic of the past month: the re-election of Donald Trump as US president.
Central and Eastern Europe has been a major focus of US foreign policy since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, and Trump has repeatedly claimed that he can quickly end the war. The region is also home to key US allies at Russia’s doorstep, in particular Poland, which is now NATO’s biggest relative defence spender.
To understand what the region thinks about the return of Trump to the White House, Joshua Coe speaks to two journalists, UkraineWorld’s deputy editor-in-chief Anastasiia Herasymchuk, and Notes from Poland’s editor-in-chief Daniel Tilles.
In this podcast series, we look at the region from different angles and perspectives, attempting to capture its diversity and understand emerging trends. Above all, we want to give a voice to a region that is often talked to rather than listened to.
