The US final week launched its new National Security Strategy – and it wasn’t excellent news for Europe. The doc – which units out US overseas coverage priorities – blasted Europe for undermining ‘political liberty and sovereignty,’ de-emphasised the risk from Russia, reframed America’s competitors with China and put affect over the western hemisphere on the prime of the US agenda. In this episode, FT chief economics commentator Martin Wolf and Nobel laureate Paul Krugman focus on what the affect of this new US technique could also be. How ought to Europe react to this sharp flip from its strongest historic ally? And is Trump handing China the world on a silver platter?
