With Charles Michel on his post-election future, Palestine and the far-right | Radio Schuman podcast
In this first episode, we talked with the President of the European Council Charles Michel on hot topics on the Brussels agenda, including implications of the recognition of Palestine by some of the bloc's countries and the likelihood of European boots on the ground in Ukraine.
He shared with us some good and bad memories of the last five years, the behind the scene of the European Council, including lessons learned - and some frustrations.
Michel stays in office until November 2024. This might see him compelled to collaborate more with the far-right in the Council, we asked him how he might deal in such circumstances.
He publicly remains cautious on what's next for him after the Council, however he gave some hints about where he may be headed.
