SUMMARY:Trump’s second term: NATO, War, and the Economy
DESCRIPTION:Donald Trump has returned to the presidency demanding that NATO nations increase their military spending to 3%, possibly 5% of GDP, and threating massive tariffs. His commitments to NATO remain uncertain, as does his administration’s approach to the Ukraine War and possible ceasefire-related diplomacy. His “America First” agenda includes a $100 billion increase in the Pentagon’s already gargantuan budget.\nWhat are the implications for Euro-American relations with Russia, for NATO or pressures for an independent European military, for the U.S., European, and world economies? How should U..S. and European peace movements respond?\nSpeakers: \nNiamh Ni Bhriain coordinates TNI’s War and Pacification program, which focuses on the permanent state of war and pacification of resistance. She holds an LLM in International Human Rights Law from the Irish Centre for Human Rights at the National University of Ireland Galway (NUIG).\nReiner Braun served as General Secretary of the International Peace Bureau. He has decades of experience in the German and European peace movements, was deeply involved the Max Plank Institute’s planning for the Einstein Year, and he has been a leading figure in promotion of Common Security diplomacy.\nMichael Klare is a visiting fellow of the Arms Control Association, secretary of its board of directors, emeritus professor of the Five Colleges Peace and World Security Studies program at Hampshire College, and a regular contributor for The Nation Magazine.\nWebinar: Tuesday, February 18th, 2025\n10:00 AM PST, 1:00 PM EST, 6:00PM GMT\n
