Donald Trump nutzt seine Rede beim World Economic Forum in Davos für eine klare America-First-Botschaft. Weniger eskalierend als befürchtet, aber ohne Zugeständnisse an Europa. Die zentrale Frage: Was folgt daraus für die transatlantischen Beziehungen – und was ist Europas Antwort? Gordon Repinski mit der Einordnung von Trumps Auftritt, die Erwartungen an Friedrich Merz und der wachsende Handlungsdruck auf Europa. Dazu im Gespräch: Jonathan Martin von POLITICO in Washington. Er ordnet ein nach welchen Mustern Trump agiert und warum Börsen und Märkte dabei eine größere Rolle spielen als diplomatische Appelle.
Im 200-Sekunden-Interview spricht die stellvertretende SPD-Fraktionsvorsitzenden Siemtje Möller über Grönland, europäische Souveränität und die Frage, ob Europa mehr tut als nur zu reagieren.
Anschließend richtet sich mit Hans von der Burchard der Blick nach Brüssel: Beim EU-Sondergipfel treffen die Staats- und Regierungschefs aufeinander, um über Zölle, Sicherheitspolitik und die durch das EU-Parlament abgelehnte Mercosur-Ratifizierung zu beraten.
