The Greenfield Report with Henry R. Greenfield
Episode 1- The Coalition of the Willing: Europe's Stand Against US Isolation
In the inaugural episode of the Greenfield Report on Global Gist, Henry R. Greenfield explores the escalating tensions between the US and European democracies concerning Ukraine. As JD Vance embarks on a controversial European visit, endorsing Germany's far-right AfD party, US-Europe relations deteriorate. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's announcement that NATO will exclude Ukraine further strains ties. Trump's rhetoric against Zelensky and the US undermines European alliances while he courts Saudi diplomatic intervention. In response, European countries, led by Macron and Starmer, form a "Coalition of the Willing" to back Ukraine independently, marking a potential shift away from US leadership.
