Former EU Ambassador Andrew Standley | Apr 03, 2025 12:00 PM |
EU-US Transatlantic Relations: Stormy Seas or Smooth Sailing?
![]() EU-US relations – based on shared values, a common history and a free market economy – have been a bedrock of the post WWII international order. Within the NATO framework, Europe has depended on the US for its security, while successive US administrations have broadly supported the EU as a means of consolidating peace, stability and prosperity in Europe. But the US geographic focus has increasingly shifted towards the Asia-Pacific region. Meanwhile, deep internal strains are appearing within the EU as a result of surging populism. Andrew Standley, former EU ambassador to Bolivia, Israel and Mexico, will examine the state of US-EU relations as well as the key challenges facing the EU, and identify areas where the transatlantic relationship may face headwinds. |
