As we approach the US presidential election, it's clear that its implications will extend far beyond American borders, resonating profoundly within Europe. This election represents a critical juncture for Europe’s political and economic landscape, especially concerning the future of Ukraine and the broader European security order.
To that end, the Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung is releasing two scenario papers, mapping out potential policies of each administration and proposing EU responses to key issues. The first paper explores future U.S. support for Ukraine, NATO, and European defence, while the second focuses on green industrial policy and the global climate agenda. Additionally, our U.S. elections dossier features a range of events and articles, including insights from our Washington D.C. director, Hannah Winnick, on the potential role of third-party candidates in this election.
This week, our EU office also presented a study on the EU’s democratic resilience in the face of rising disinformation and foreign interference. We are pleased to have had Sophie Pornschlegel, Deputy Director at Europe Jacques Delors in Brussels, presenting the study's key findings.
And last but certainly not least, I invite you to read the Georgian elections analysis by our Tbilisi office Director Sonja Schiffers.
