Can Europe Break Up With the US?

Big Take

About this episode

From his ambitions to acquire Greenland to his retracted (for now) threats of tariffs on European countries that oppose him, President Donald Trump continues to alienate the EU’s member states. But they’re aligned on one thing: The continent needs to be ready to stand on its own, and fast.

On today’s Big Take podcast, host David Gura and Bloomberg Brussels bureau chief Suzanne Lynch recap the outcomes of an emergency summit of EU leaders last Thursday, the toolkit at their disposal to push back and the routes ahead for Europe in a shifting world order.
