Content
Following the recent presidential election, questions arise about whether the divide between the U.S. and Europe may deepen. Will the administration under President-elect Donald Trump continue to diverge from Europe on issues like defense, trade, and global governance? Could this re-election amplify the gap if the U.S. adopts a more isolationist stance? Should Europe pursue greater strategic autonomy, strengthening its own defense and energy strategies independently of the U.S.? And how might Switzerland, with its commitment to neutrality, navigate these shifts in the global order?
