Metin Hakverdi & Christoph von Marschall
- What now? The West after the turn of the era
- What does the future hold for Europe and the transatlantic partnership?
- In dialogue
The certainties of past decades have been shaken. Security, trade, and international cooperation must be reimagined in light of changing global conditions. The transatlantic relationship is under pressure. How will Europe respond to these challenges? What role will Germany play in this? Who can and must take on more responsibility?
These questions will be discussed by Metin Hakverdi (SPD), a member of the Bundestag, and Christoph von Marschall, a U.S. expert from Berlin’s “Tagesspiegel.”
Metin Hakverdi is the Federal Government’s Coordinator for Transatlantic Cooperation at the Federal Foreign Office. In this role, he represents Germany at a time when the transatlantic partnership must be rebalanced.
Christoph von Marschall has reported on four U.S. presidents since 2005 (George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Donald Trump, Joe Biden, and now Trump again) and is one of Germany’s most renowned observers of American politics.
The discussion is part of the “80 Years of Encounters” Open House and part of the series“And Now? How Germany and Europe Can Remain Capable of Action.”
