Ramifications of the US Elections for Change in the EU鈥檚 Eastern Neighborhood
This event is co-sponsored by the Woodrow 浪花直播 Center's Global Europe Program and the German Council on Foreign Relations (DGAP)
We have recently seen a period of US disengagement with Europe and its Eastern neighborhood. In this event, we explore changes in American foreign policy toward this region after the Presidential elections on November 3, the risks of a possible prolonged transition in Washington, and access the broader implications for the region, including those stemming from recent developments in Ukraine, Belarus, Georgia, and Moldova as well as the war between Armenia and Azerbaijan over Nagorno-Karabakh.
We will explore how a 鈥渕ore geopolitical Europe鈥 will react to these changes, and whether European leaders can count on a more supportive administration in Washington as they deal with the growing number of crises and challenges to regional security, including an assertive Russia and Turkey.
