In the continuation of The Alliance, we talk about how Europe should react, because the new National Security Strategy of the American government is extremely tough. In what is already being called the 'Trump Doctrine', it states that America wants to end the special relationship with Europe in two years. Afterward, Europe will have to figure it out for itself. As arguments, the White House cites 'European democracy and our civilization perishing due to censorship, a declining birth rate, and migration.' For BNR, this is an opportunity to bring together the channel's geopolitical pundits again in a two-part Alliance. BNR's geopolitical pundits: * Foreign affairs commentator Bernard Hammelburg, from BNR De Wereld and the Amerika Podcast. * Europe correspondent Stefan de Vries, from Make Europe Great Again. * Professor of International Relations Rob de Wijk, from Boekestijn & De Wijk. Presentation: Liesbeth Staats. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
