Talking Europe

This podcast features an interview with Jacques Attali, an economist and advisor to French presidents, discussing the current geopolitical landscape and the implications for Europe. Attali argues that the US is disengaging from Europe, leaving it vulnerable to Russian aggression, and advocates for a rapid strengthening of European defense capabilities, including a war economy and a unified European army. He controversially compares President Trump's actions to those of Hitler, highlighting the urgency of the situation. Attali also suggests that while seizing frozen Russian assets might seem appealing, it could destabilize the Euro and should be avoided for now.
