View from Munich / Europe’s far-right / DNI in Georgia

“The world has entered a period of wrecking-ball politics,” begins the Munich Security Report, released as the world’s security establishment gathers in Germany.

Host Mary Louise Kelly is on the ground at the Munich Security Conference, as is Berlin Correspondent Rob Schmitz. Together with National Security Correspondent Greg Myre, they check in on Europe’s effort to bolster its own defenses, as the U.S. pulls back.

Rob explains Germany’s right-wing populist AfD party’s political ascendence and its goals for security policy.

And Greg walks through what Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was doing at a Fulton County, Ga. elections hub during an FBI search.Email the show at [e-mail]
