“Polarised” and “inward-looking” : The US election campaign seen by a European lawmaker

Today Radio Schuman spoke with German Green MEP Daniel Freund, as he drove through Pennsylvania, the critical state where Joe Biden narrowly defeated Trump by just 1.2% in 2020, and where Harris and Trump are once again locked in a very tight contest.

Brussels and Europe will hold their breath tomorrow as millions of Americans head to the polls for a pivotal election with global repercussions.

The race is razor-thin between Democratic candidate Kamala Harris and her Republican opponent, Donald Trump. Europeans will be keeping a close eye on the seven key battleground states where the election is likely to be decided: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

We also give a quick overview of European Commissioner-designates hearings and who will be heard today by MEPs.

On the last part of the show, Radio Schuman explores in which EU countries are the most businesses being launched - spoiler alert: a very small country leads the ranking.

Radio Schuman is hosted and produced by Maïa de la Baume, with journalist and production assistant Eleonora Vasques, audio editing by Zacharia Vigneron and Georgios Leivaditis. Music by Alexandre Jas.
