1 小时 23 分钟Welcome to the LSE events podcast by the London School of Economics and Political Science.
Get ready to hear from some of the most influential international figures in the social sciences.
Good evening, everyone.
Great to have you here.
My name is Peter Trubowitz.
I'm a professor in the Department of International Relations and the director of the Phelan United States Center at LSE.
which is hosting tonight's lecture.
So tonight's lecture is the fifth in our year-long lecture series called America's Changing Role in the World.
And the series is premised on the idea that the United States is in the throes of a rethink about its foreign policy purposes and priorities that arguably began before Donald Trump.
before Trump's presidency, but has accelerated on his watch,
often as the current US-Israel-Iran war indicates, in surprising and unpredictable ways.
We very much wanted to get speakers in that had views about what Trump 2.0 was about.
what the motivation was, where the administration was headed.
But also we wanted speakers who could talk about what it meant for either the rest of the world,
their part of the world, different regions of the world.
And so tonight we focus on Trump and Europe and we are very fortunate to have with us Dr.
Natalie Tocci to give us her take on the direction of travel in Trump 2.0 and its implications for Europe.
Natalie is the director of the Institute of International Affairs in Rome,
professor of practice at the Johns Hopkins University,
Cice Bologna, and a senior fellow at the Institute for European Policymaking.
