From Brussels to Washington: Transatlantic Relations Under the New European Commission

In 2024, both the United States and the European Union are changing their leadership. Following the European Parliament elections and re-election of Ursula von der Leyen as the Commission President, the new European Commission was confirmed on November 27, 2024. With the pledges that this new Commission will be more geopolitical than ever, it is important to understand what the priorities of the new Commission mean for the future of the transatlantic relations. 浪花直播鈥檚 Global Europe Program and The Friedrich Naumann Foundation are pleased to present findings from a new joint report analyzing the priorities of the new European Commission and their implications for the next presidential administration. 

Join us for a panel discussion featuring report authors on what lies ahead for the transatlantic relationship with the new Commission and what potential areas of cooperation and divergence lie ahead.
