EU Foreign Policy Chief Federica Mogherini on 2016 US Presidents and EU Challenges
We're delighted that one of Europe's top-ranked women joined us for this "inaugural" show: Federica Mogherini, the European Union's foreign policy chief, also a vice president of the European Commission (EC). She agreed to speak to Teri Schultz, the host of this podcast, just a few hours after Donald Trump was confirmed as the next US president, a development which shocked Brussels along with all those American pollsters. Mogherini says the phrase that has stuck with her from Obama's first White House campaign was that "everything is possible in America". It meant one thing during the election of America's first black president in 2008. Now, she notes pointedly, two very different interpretations are possible.
