Decoding the Biden Administration: Opportunities for the EU

Wed. January 27th, 2021
Live Online

The inauguration of U.S. President Joe Biden has brought a new wave of hope for reinvigorating the transatlantic relationship. The EU has already capitalized on this enthusiasm by offering fresh proposals for EU-U.S. collaboration while raising its ambitions to boost its international role and shape global policies.

How alignment and divergence play out across the Atlantic in the coming months will have implications for all major global challenges, from climate change and the coronavirus pandemic to security and economic recovery.

To decode the new U.S. administration and mark the publication of Working With the Biden Administration: Opportunities for the EU, Rosa Balfour will host a discussion with Cathryn Clüver Ashbrook and Pierre Vimont.
