Almut Möller: European Foreign & Security Policy

Social Europe Podcast

In this episode of the Social Europe Podcast, Henning Meyer and Almut Möller discuss the evolving landscape of European foreign and security policy as we enter 2025. They discuss the concept of strategic autonomy, the challenges posed by external threats such as Russia's aggression, and the internal divisions among EU member states. The conversation highlights the urgent need for a unified approach to security and defence, the impact of populism and external actors like Elon Musk, and the importance of collaboration with allies, particularly the UK. Both speakers emphasise the necessity for the EU to adapt its policies and strategies to ensure its future viability and effectiveness in a rapidly changing global environment.
