A Financial Times series looks at how the US “Make America Great Again” (MAGA) movement views Europe and how it relates to far-right and right-wing politics on the continent. The reporting frames MAGA’s approach to Europe as interconnected with broader questions about nationalism, sovereignty, and political alliances.
The outlets’ descriptions emphasize that the relationship is complex, including how MAGA engages with, reinforces, or diverges from elements of Europe’s right-wing landscape. While the coverage is presented as an explanatory series rather than reporting a single event, it synthesizes perspectives on the movement’s targets and messaging toward European audiences and political actors.
Across the two Financial Times listings, the central angle remains consistent: the series examines MAGA’s interpretation of Europe and the movement’s “complicated” ties with European right-wing movements, rather than focusing on one country or a single diplomatic development.
