European unity is being put to the test. Across the continent, the Ukraine war is straining resources and defense capabilities. Tech regulation is a source of tension and debate. A populist backlash against migrants is roiling politics. And transatlantic relations are evolving amid rising competition with China.
Europe has survived in recent decades through trade, and through a reliance on cheap Russian energy, all while outsourcing much of its security. But, as European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said at Davos last week, “those days are long gone.” Now, as differences emerge over how best to address Europe’s challenges, a question looms over the continent’s businesses and policymakers: How united is the European Union?
For this timely discussion, The U.S. Chamber's Global Intelligence Desk is delighted to host Dr. Alexandra de Hoop Scheffer, the acting President of the German Marshall Fund of the United States. A leading voice in European and transatlantic affairs, Dr. de Hoop Scheffer provides key insights into how Europe is managing an increasingly restive voter base and a struggling economy.
