Wales Qualifies for Euro 2025 in Switzerland

The European Union is facing a volatile geopolitical landscape in 2024, exacerbated by the collapse of the German government, coalition negotiations in Austria, and the end of Russian gas flows to the EU. The ongoing war in Ukraine, instability in the Middle East, and crises in Africa and Sudan further complicate the EU's response strategies. With Donald Trump’s recent election victory, there are concerns about the US’s commitment to supporting its allies, particularly regarding aid for Ukraine and reconstruction efforts. As the EU navigates these challenges, it must recalibrate its approach to Africa and enhance its support for Ukraine's resistance against Russia. Meanwhile, Wales is preparing for Euro 2025, having made history by qualifying for their first major tournament, though they face a tough group with England, France, and the Netherlands. Under coach Rhian Wilkinson, the team aims to leverage their recent success and competitive fixtures in the Nations League to prepare for the upcoming challenges in Switzerland.
