Exploring the impacts the US elections could have on the transatlantic partnership

As the US presidential election draws closer, how will the next administration influence the transatlantic partnership? That’s what we heard about on Monday, 14 October during our US elections event, co-organised with POLITICO Pro. Attendees gained insights from both sides of the aisle, hearing comments from Jack Kingston, former US representative and former Republican Congressman and Bart Szewczyk, former US State Department official and former Co-chair, EU subgroup, Biden-Harris campaign. Aura Salla, MEP (EPP, FI) joined the panel to examine how the EU can prepare for the upcoming US administration. With the transatlantic remaining the largest, most integrated partnership in the world, find out why it’s crucial EU and US leaders continue to invest in this impactful relationship

Susan Danger, CEO, AmCham EU and Sarah Wheaton, Co-author, Brussels Playbook and Host, POLITICO Confidential welcomed the attendees before Sarah then joined the discussion as a moderator. The evening finished with an American-style reception.

Implementing the EU-US Joint Statement

With the EU having formally adopted the tariff reductions agreed under the EU-US Framework Agreement, the two sides now have an opportunity to enter a new phase.

The agreement has the potential to help restore stability and predictability for citizens and businesses on both sides of the Atlantic and provide the basis for continued collaborationbetween the EU and US. The goal should be to bring their shared $9.8 trillion commercial relationship to a more constructive place, focusing on cooperation where interests align.
