Does Ireland need a new strategy for Europe?

Countries are re-arming in response to growing security threats. Economic security risks are leading to a rethinking of EU state aid rules, competition and trade policies.

Joining Kieran to discuss this is Dan O’ Brien, Chief Economist at the Institute of International and European Affairs and Senior Fellow at UCD.
