Finn, Peter and Ledger, Robert (2018) Transatlantic twilight? The impact of the Mueller Investigation on US-Europe relations. Ante Portas – Security Studies, 1(10), pp. 11-27. ISSN (online) 2353-6306
Abstract
The Mueller investigation into Russian interference in the US 2016 Presidential election has dogged the Trump administration, almost from the beginning of its time in office. The impact of the probe is widespread and affecting the United States in myriad ways both domestically and in foreign policy. We contend that, regarding US-European relations, the Mueller investigation is hastening two broad trends. Firstly, the continuing revelations are pushing the traditional US foreign policy establishment closer towards Europe. Secondly, and simultaneously, these revelations, as well as the continued actions of the President himself, are acting as a source of tension in US-European relations that are pushing European elites into awkward policy choices.
