In this month’s episode, we welcome Hunter Marston for a fascinating discussion on the potential global implications of a second Donald Trump presidency. We explore how his return could shape relations across Europe and the Indo-Pacific, examining potential shifts in trade, alliances, and power politics. We also dive into the world of pygmy hippo divas, where personalities shine and drama unfolds—including a surprising European rival to the now-iconic Moo Deng.

Join hosts Zsuzsa Anna Ferenczy and Richard Heydarian as they discuss key geopolitical issues, emerging trends, and the evolving dynamics shaping relations between these vital regions.

Produced by 9DASHLINE and the European Parliament in ASEAN, The Bridge offers expert insight and analysis into the complex relationship between Europe, Southeast Asia, and the wider Indo-Pacific.
