Description

🇪🇺 The European Union has the size, resources, and ambition to be a global power, yet in moments that matter, it’s often left on the sidelines.  The Trump–Putin meeting on Ukraine is a stark reminder: Europe may be consulted, but others still call the shots in its own neighbourhood.


In this episode, we explore why the continent’s growing economic and defence muscle hasn’t translated into decisive geopolitical clout, and what it would take for the EU to step fully onto the world stage.
