  • Peace in Europe, War with China?

    Peace in Europe, War with China?
    Mar 5 2025
    This week Richard and Yalda sit down with Matt Pottinger, former Deputy National Security adviser to Donald Trump and one of the leading US experts on foreign affairs.

    With an insider’s knowledge of the president’s decision making, Matt lays out what he believes is the rationale behind Trump's foreign policy.

    He predicts Europe and America will eventually work in tandem and call Putin's bluff, but he warns the real danger lies in the Pacific region and a potential clash with China, a superpower he declares is "already on a war footing”.
