In today’s show, Ian is in the sunny Mediterranean nation of Cyprus for the biggest gathering of EU leaders on the island for many, many years.
Sarah is joining from Brussels and Nick is calling from Greece, where he is attending the Delphi Economic Conference.
Expect the leaders’ meeting agendas today and tomorrow to be heavy on geopolitics. High on the list of topics to be discussed are the Iran crisis, high energy prices, the EU’s long-term budget and how the union can defend itself. So, very high stakes, then.
In Greece, Nick points out that – to his surprise – several top MAGA figures have appeared at the Delphi Economic Forum. With Hungarian leader and Trump ally Viktor Orbán on the way out, it seems the movement aligned with the US president is looking for new friends.
