This session addresses the geopolitical realignments and economic challenges currently impacting Europe and the global order. It features a high-level conversation between Kyriakos Mitsotakis, Prime Minister of the Hellenic Republic, and António Costa, President of the European Council.
Chaired by Fred Pleitgen, Senior International Correspondent for CNN Germany, the discussion tackles the consequences of the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, the pursuit of European defence autonomy, and the complexities of financial and energy instability. The episode offers a look at the future of global stability through a European lens: From the ascension of the Western Balkans and new trade agreements with India and Mercosur, to the next day of relationship with the U.S. and balancing free trade with environmental protection.
