With Europe falling ever-deeper into crisis, European Parliament President Martin Schulz is warning of the further advance of right-wing populism. In an interview, he also says he fears the possibility of a President Trump.
On Sept. 16, leaders European Union member states will meet for their next informal meeting in Bratislava, Slovakia – the second one without Britain. Also in attendance will be Martin Schulz, the German president of the European Parliament. Schulz is very concerned about the current state of the EU. “We’re at a historical juncture: A growing number of people are declaring what has been achieved over the past decades in Europe to be wrong,” the politician, a member of the center-left Social Democrats (SPD) told SPIEGEL ONLINE in an interview.
