François Picard is pleased to welcome Hélène Conway-Mouret, French Senator, Vice Chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee. According to Conway-Mouret, Donald Trump’s Iran war strategy is creating incredible volatility for European security, transatlantic relations, and even domestic politics in the US. All the while, NATO withdrawal is being levied as a threat to force European compliance.

In this context, European leaders are navigating a minefield as they seek to avoid escalation, while confronting economic instability and serious security threats. Europe is now compelled to respond to crises it did not even initiate.
