What is Macron’s grand strategy?
As the 2022 French presidential election approaches, Europe Center senior fellow Ben Judah interviewed Michel Duclos, special advisor for geopolitics at Institut Montaigne and former French Ambassador to Syria and Switzerland. The interview draws on his new book France in Global Upheaval.
How is Macron a reaction to his predecessors? How has Macron approached the neo-authoritarians? Has their been a militarization of French foreign policy? How successful has Macron been on pushing for European strategic autonomy? How does Macron view Britain and the United States?
