In this episode of Ian Bremmer’s Quick Take, Ian discusses the breakthrough US-EU trade deal, calling it a "big win" for the US and President Donald Trump.

The agreement is an advantage for American corporations and boosts manufacturing, with Ian noting, “Americans are in a stronger position than Europe.”

Trump's recent foreign policy successes, including trade deals with Japan and South Korea and NATO support for Ukraine reflect short-term achievements.

However, Ian cautions that the long-term cost may be America's credibility. He warns, “Everyone I talk to around the world sees the United States as not just unpredictable, but unreliable."
