And now the Good Fight with Yasha Monk. Welcome to the 13th edition, bad luck I suppose, of the Good Fight Club. And today we decided, given current events, to do a Europe extra vaganza. We're gonna think about what Donald Trump's new national security strategy means for Europe. uh what is happening with the peace negotiations in Ukraine and whether Europe can try to assure a decent future for Ukraine on its own.
And more broadly, the question that most interests me, how should Europe respond to this political moment? Is Europe destined to be a continental museum or can it actually meet this political and historical moment, what does it need to do in order to accomplish that? I have a really star-studded panel of Europe experts and uh some of my most beloved Europeans with me today. There is uh, I I think in alphabetical order of the last names, Timothy Garten Ash.
Um he is uh the author of Homelands, a personal history of Europe, as well as the Substack History of the Present. Welcome Timothy. Good to be with you. We have Sabina Cudic, who is the president of a social liberal party in Bosnia-Herzegovina, the vice president of the European Liberals in the Council of Europe, and one of our regular guests on the Good Fight Club. Welcome back, Sabina.
