Journalist and European Research Fellow Rym Momtaz talks to Ros Taylor from Paris about the similarities between Joe Biden and Emmanuel Macron, that awkward AUKUS moment over submarines, and why Macron might become the “Obama of France”…
- “When Trump was President, Macron tried to set up a bromance.”
- “It's a misconception that Democrats get along better with their European counterparts.”
- “Macron is trying to be seen as driving the EU response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.”
