Highlights from the Transatlantic Forum on GeoEconomics, as US and European leaders reimagine transatlantic cooperation (Katherine Golden and Daniel Hojnacki – Atlantic Council)

A new US-Europe relationship is taking shape. Over the past year, the economic and security environment shared by the transatlantic partners has rapidly changed. With the return of the Trump administration, the United States launched a trade war—that led to a trade deal—with the European Union (EU). Meanwhile, Washington has continued to press NATO allies to increase their defense spending, as Russia’s war in Ukraine carries on and its incursions into European airspace accelerate. Amid such headwinds for the US-Europe relationship, our experts flew to Brussels for the Transatlantic Forum on GeoEconomics to hear from US and EU leaders on their visions for enhancing US-European cooperation on trade, security, technology, and other era-defining issues.
