Advancing the German-American Alliance

Updating the Transatlantic Partnership for the Next 70 Years

Wednesday, May 15, 2019
10:00am – 3:00pm

The year 2019 marks several major anniversaries that trace the arc of the transatlantic relationship: the April 1949 founding of NATO, the May 1949 establishment of the Federal Republic of Germany, and the November 1989 fall of the Berlin Wall. Over the last 70 years, the United States and Germany have remained partners as the international system has evolved, external threats have changed, and economic interconnectedness has multiplied. The relationship is experiencing new tests, and our shared future will depend on decisions that Washington and Berlin must make in the foreseeable future. This half-day symposium will examine the challenges facing the transatlantic community and offer a vision for the alliance in the decades ahead.

AGI is pleased to welcome Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer, Chair of the Christian Democratic Union, to give the keynote address.
