'In Trump's world, is there room for multilateralism?' with Lord Malloch-Brown

4th December 2025: 5:00pm   Registration Required
Oxford Martin School & Online

The last year has been marked by a dramatic turn away from multilateral cooperation towards the assertion of national interest. Many attribute this directly to the re-election of President Trump, and while he is the most prominent spokesman and catalyst for this change, the talk will trace how the US move away from multilateral cooperation began much earlier. This shift is also not limited to the US, as other countries also focus on the promotion of national interest over international solidarity.
