Sir Ivan Rogers explores how renewed US pressure over Greenland exposes deeper questions about Europe’s strategic maturity, unity, and capacity to defend its own interests. Drawing on his experience at the heart of EU decision-making, he examines how the Union responds when sovereignty, alliance politics, and great-power competition collide. The talk reflects on what this episode reveals about the limits of European influence, the future of transatlantic trust, and whether the EU is ready to act as a true geopolitical actor in an increasingly confrontational world.
