For years, European officials have been “effectively waiting for a crisis to force themselves to fix widely acknowledged problems,” write @dougrediker.bsky.social and @heidirediker.bsky.social. “Now, they risk doing something worse: wasting a crisis by failing to act as it unfolds.”

“Europe is in real danger of being sidelined by its most important ally, and its ability to defend itself and secure its future role in the world hinges on its ability to mobilize resources and act collectively,” warn @dougrediker.bsky.social and @heidirediker.bsky.social.
@heidirediker.bsky.social & I wrote this in @foreignaffairs.com arguing the EU only acts in crisis but could waste the current transatlantic crisis by failing to make the economic reforms Europe needs to act as a strong global actor. Will they meet the moment? www.foreignaffairs.com/guest-pass/r...
@heidirediker.bsky.social and I wrote this for @alphaville.ft.com - US intervention in Argentina sends a worrying signal about politicizing US financial firepower. Are Fed swap lines next? IMF quotas should be increased to prepare for the next crisis. on.ft.com/4pPdCOz
As the European Union seeks to hedge against an unpredictable Washington, it should avoid turning toward Beijing, argue @heidirediker.bsky.social and @lianafix.bsky.social. China still poses economic and security threats to Europe—and “the EU still doesn’t have a China card to play.”
Washington is dangerously dependent on Beijing for critical minerals, metals, and rare-earth elements—resources that all “play a vital role in the United States’ peacetime economy and national security,” writes @heidirediker.bsky.social.

Great interview by @heidirediker.bsky.social on @bloomberg.com Surveillance discussing Russia/Ukraine and opportunities for using critical minerals to entice US support. youtu.be/PE9FA5h3fnc?...
U.S. support is crucial for Ukraine, and it is also a great opportunity for the U.S. in its self-interest. Fabulous piece by @heidirediker.bsky.social - The Art of a Good Deal: Ukraine’s Strategic Economic Opportunity for the United States on.cfr.org/4g8e5W5 via @CFR_org

My just released @brookings.edu post on Trump tariffs and why, when he says “tariffs are my favorite word and are costless” the threat needs to be taken seriously.
