How are political developments in Washington, Brussels, and Berlin reshaping the alliance? What role will security and trade play in defining the next chapter of trans-Atlantic ties? And how can we navigate disagreements while strengthening our shared interests? What is the role of civil society actors on both sides of the Atlantic and private friendships in fostering a stable relationship? In this discussion, Robin Quinville (former Director of the Wilson Center’s Global Europe Program) will explore the challenges and opportunities facing one of the world’s most important bilateral partnerships.
