Zack, Jenn, and Alex discuss President Joe Biden’s big trip to Europe, where he met with the other leaders of the G7 and NATO countries as well as with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The gang examine what Biden actually accomplished on his trip, discuss the furor that erupted on Political Science Twitter over a comment Biden made during a press conference, and debate whether the Putin meeting was as important as the media hype made it out to be. Also, Worldly makes an important announcement.

If you want to look at all the fact sheets from Biden’s Europe trip, it’s worth perusing the White House’s Briefing Room website.

Alex wrote about the perils of the Biden-Putin summit and the big bet Biden made.

And here’s the tweet Alex sent, where you can then see the reactions from political scientists.

It’s worth looking back at this past Vox piece on the 2018 G7.

Back in 2018, Zack wrote a good Vox piece on America’s alliances.
