Overview
For years, Americans have taken a shortcut in understanding the labyrinth of EU institutions and policies by focusing on understanding the interests of one member state: Germany. Today’s EU is as important to the success of US foreign policy as it is complex. In this Director’s Forum, Ambassador Wolfgang Ischinger, Chairman of the Munich Security Conference and Former Deputy Foreign Minister of Germany will help decode the EU and explain how the US can best use the resources offered by the Transatlantic Partnership.
Speaker
Wolfgang Ischinger
Chairman of the Munich Security Conference (MSC), former State Secretary (Deputy Foreign Minister) of Germany, formerly Germany's Ambassador to the U.S.

Global Europe Program
The Global Europe Program is focused on Europe’s capabilities, and how it engages on critical global issues. We investigate European approaches to critical global issues. We examine Europe’s relations with Russia and Eurasia, China and the Indo-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa. Our initiatives include “Ukraine in Europe” – an examination of what it will take to make Ukraine’s European future a reality. But we also examine the role of NATO, the European Union and the OSCE, Europe’s energy security, transatlantic trade disputes, and challenges to democracy. The Global Europe Program’s staff, scholars-in-residence, and Global Fellows participate in seminars, policy study groups, and international conferences to provide analytical recommendations to policy makers and the media.
