Last month, The Europe Desk sat down with Martin Schulz, the Former President of the European Parliament, to hear his reflections on recent events and perspective on the future of European affairs. Our conversation spanned various topics, including Qatargate, the future of the European socialist movement, and the Russia-Ukraine crisis.
