Manlio Graziano: 'Europe still needs the US but they know they cannot trust Americans anymore'

François Picard is pleased to welcome Manlio Graziano, Author, Professor of Geopolitics at the American Graduate School of International Relations & Diplomacy. He argues that we are embarking on a new world order: the US remains a superpower, yet no longer functions as "leader of the free world". For a half century, the US has faced the limits of its global dominance, a realisation rooted in strategic failures ranging from Vietnam to Iraq and Afghanistan. Today, this erosion of hegemony manifests as strategic incoherence: Europe can no longer fully rely on, nor entirely detach from, the US.
