Thierry Breton, former European Commissioner for Internal Market, expressed concerns on France Inter about the implications of Donald Trump’s election victory for Europe. He warned that Trump’s leadership might deepen divisions within the EU and rally far-right leaders like Hungary’s Viktor Orban and Italy’s Giorgia Meloni. Breton urged EU leaders, including Roberta Metsola and Ursula von der Leyen, to remain united and address pressing issues, particularly concerning Europe’s security and defense capabilities, without relying solely on NATO and the U.S.
