How Trump’s world order hangs over Europe | Global News Podcast
World leaders are heading for Germany, for the annual Munich Security Conference – one year since the US Vice-President JD Vance delivered a bombshell speech, lambasting European leaders and shaking the old transatlantic alliance.
Since then, the Trump White House has tipped the world order upside down with punitive trade tariffs and an unpredictable approach to countries including Ukraine, Russia, Greenland, Canada, Iran and Venezuela.
This year, the conference – which begins on Friday – once again looks set to be decisive. US Secretary of State and National Security Adviser Marco Rubio leads the US delegation, while more than 50 other world leaders have been invited. It comes as the security of Europe looks increasingly precarious and Nato allies are on edge.
The latest US National Security Strategy called on Europe to “stand on its own feet” and take “primary responsibility for its own defence,” adding to fears that the US is largely unwilling to underpin Europe’s defence.
The BBC’s diplomatic correspondent James Landale takes us through the backdrop of the conference and the current state of the transatlantic alliance.

South African judge and former UN human rights commissioner Navi Pillay has won the Nobel Peace Prize 2026.
Pillay has been recognised for her “efforts to promote peace and international law”, the Norwegian Nobel Committee said.
She has become the fifth South African winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, with former President Nelson Mandela among past winners.
In her impromptu acceptance speech at the International Nuremberg Principles Academy, Pillay said it’s appropriate she found out about winning the Nobel Prize while with friends and colleagues who support human rights.

Could the PM face a confidence vote in the coming days? Please subscribe HERE http://bit.ly/1rbfUog
Boris Johnson has “categorically” denied he was warned a drinks party in the No 10 garden risked breaking lockdown rules.
“Nobody warned me that it was against the rules,” the prime minister said.
Former aide Dominic Cummings says he warned the PM at the time, and has accused him of misleading MPs about it.
Pressure is now mounting on the prime minister and there are reports the target of 54 letters to trigger a vote of confidence will be met in the coming days.
Newsnight’s political editor Nick Watt reports. Kirsty Wark is joined by Conservative peer Lord Marland, Delyth Miles from Grassroots Conservatives and former Conservative cabinet minister David Gauke.
