Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Is it time to bury the post–Cold War world order?
Q: Is it time to bury the post-Cold War order?
Yes, I do think so, unfortunately. One could say that maybe it died already maybe in 2022, and it's time to bury it maybe now.
Is it time to bury the post–Cold War world order?
Q: When Trump leaves the White House in January 2029, will Greenland still be part of Denmark, or will it be occupied by American forces, or sold to the US?
I do think that it's still going to be part of the kingdom of Denmark because it wasn't so bad that there wasn't something good in it too.
Is it time to bury the post–Cold War world order?
Q: How should Europe handle Trump when you said it's probably much more coherent than many people think?
Europe needs to start thinking much more proactively about what is our own Russia strategy.
Is it time to bury the post–Cold War world order?
Q: Do you think that basically what might bring us back to negotiations or to new treaties might be something similar to what happened in the 60s with the Cuban missile crisis?
It's hard to say no, because the situation is more complex with more players, especially with China.
With Pakistani heritage and experience in Ukraine: Meet the new UK Ambassador to Slovakia
Q: What can we do more to push him?
The need for a twin-track approach of supporting Ukraine while keeping pressure on Russia is emphasized.
