Europe vs the US: How do they compare?
The World at One Highlights
President Trump has described Europe as a “decaying” group of nations led by “weak” people, saying it was being "destroyed" by immigration, which was “ruining" Europe's heritage.
The new US National Security Strategy says the US must “cultivate resistance” within Europe to its "current trajectory" which has set it on a path of "civilisational erasure" - a document which describes itself as “a roadmap to ensure America remains the greatest and most successful nation in human history and the home of freedom on earth”.
The World At One's Sarah Montague and PM's Evan Davis consider "Europe versus America" - how do they compare, in income, job opportunities, life expectancy, literacy, and quality of life and happiness?

Deadly Headshot#bbcwato have racist nutcase Nigel Farage on the programme, so I'm switching to #RadioFreeFedi...
Martin VeartIf the UK weakens its economy, devalues the currency and puts up trade barriers to our near neighbours, should we be in the least surprised that manufacturing costs, but especially that of food, rises? I’m not surprised and I made several posts previously predicting inflationary pressures. #bbcwato #wato
Listening to #BBCWatO on #BBCRadio4, I notice #JoeBiden pronounces "Northern Ireland" as "Nornirel"... #NorthernIreland #GoodFridayAgreement
Sir Mark Rowley, the commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, refuses to apply the word “institutional” to the problems of racism, misogyny and homophobia in his police force. So if so many officers are racist, misogynistic and homophobic, and the culture allows that to continue for decades, but the Met is not institutionally defective in these areas, then what the hell is it? Is there something else? #wato #bbcwato
BBC News (UK)RT from The World at One (@BBCWorldatOne)
Ukraine's Justice Minister, Denys Maliuska, told #bbcwato that handing over frozen Russian assets held in Ukrainian allied countries ‘is about justice’.
