EU must lead on climate in light of US 'stupidity' , says former UN rights chief MARY

Mary Robinson, the former Irish President and UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, criticised the US for what she termed a "stupid" approach to climate change, and called on the EU to step up to “fulfil necessary commitments” in an interview with Radio Schuman.

In this episode, we also look at today’s Foreign Affairs council focusing on EU–US trade relations at a time when the EU finds itself at the back of the line. And finally, rail travel in Europe is experiencing a renaissance. Are Europeans getting on board?
