AUTHLIB’s Dániel Hegedűs and Zsuzsanna Végh (Transatlantic Foundation / The German Marshall Fund of the United States) joined the “Democracy after 2024” podcast series of the CEU Democracy Institute’s Review of Democracy to discuss the evolution of illiberal ties across the Atlantic and their impact on liberal democracy.
- What are the common traits between the MAGA movement and the Patriots in Europe?
- Who are the drivers of the transatlantic illiberal network?
- What are the consequences of Trump’s re-election on democracy in Central and Eastern Europe and beyond?
The discussion covered these and many other interesting topics about the growing international cooperation of illiberal actors and the impact of the initial months of the second Trump presidency on Central and Eastern Europe.
