Juncker talks Ukraine’s EU membership and Trump’s russophilia

Today, Radio Schuman features an exclusive interview with former European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker, in which he criticised US President Donald Trump’s affinity for Russia and his lack of understanding of the EU.

In the interview with Euronews' Shona Murray Juncker addressed geopolitical tensions around the Trump presidency and the role Europe should play in providing security guarantees to Ukraine.

He told Euronews that, while he rarely contacts his successor, Ursula von der Leyen, he frequently visits Brussels, where he maintains an office at the Berlaymont headquarters.

We also discuss a meeting of European leaders taking place in London this Sunday, as well as new research that reveals the positive effects of tea drinking on human health.

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