❓ What will the future of transatlantic cooperation look like? How might the next US president approach relations with Germany and Europe? #USElection   🌎 In our series on the US elections, former U.S. Ambassador to Germany John B. Emerson analyzes the future of transatlantic cooperation and how it could change depending on the outcome of the elections. 🇪🇺 Emerson notes that both candidates are likely to continue to push for Europe to invest more in collective defense and take a stronger role in global challenges. But the similarities end there.   🗣 A Trump victory could energize Europe's right-wing populist movements and have a significant impact on transatlantic dynamics. But Emerson is optimistic: "Regardless of the outcome, the American Council on Germany will remain committed to strengthening ties between people, businesses, civil society and governments on both sides of the Atlantic.“   ➡ To read more about how the US election could affect the transatlantic relationship, visit our website.   ⤵ Link in the comments below ⤵ #presidentialelection2024 #DonaldTrump #KamalaHarris

❓ How does the US election system work? #USElection   🗳 In our latest guest article for our US Elections series, Steven Hill, editor and lead author of DemocracySOS, breaks down the complexities of the US presidential election process, including why the most popular candidate doesn't always win.   🇺🇲 Hill highlights the crucial role of battleground states, where the campaign differs significantly from the rest of the country. With most voters in these states already decided, the outcome depends on a small group of undecided voters known as swing voters.   ➡ To find out which groups of swing voters will be important this year and who they tend towards to, read our latest guest contribution on our website.     ⤵ Link in the comments below ⤵ #presidentialelection2024 #DonaldTrump #KamalaHarris

❓ Is a new chapter being opened in U.S. climate policy? #USElection   🌎 Erin Sikorsky, Director of the Center for Climate and Security at the Council on Strategic Risks, offers her insights on one of today's most pressing issues: climate change, as part of our series on the US elections.   ♻ Sikorsky notes that the Biden administration has made climate change a central element of its national security agenda, more so than any previous administration. The question now is whether the next president will build on this foundation or pursue a different course.   ➡ To find out how the candidates might approach climate change, read Sikorsky's full article on our website.   ⤵ Link in the comments down below ⤵ #presidentialelection2024 #DonaldTrump #KamalaHarris

❓ What is the future of US support for Ukraine? #USElection   🇺🇦 Liana Fix, Fellow for Europe at the European Council on Foreign Relations, looks at the support of the United States for Ukraine after November 5th as part of our series on the US elections.   ❗ She argues that US support for Ukraine will reach a critical point after the elections, as a new supplemental funding package will be needed early next year. Even under Kamala Harris, it may be difficult to get the supplemental through the next Congress.   ↪ Beyond the supplemental, Liane Fix sees further threats to Ukraine if Donald Trump wins the presidential election.    ➡ You can read more about her assessment in her guest article on our website. ⤵ Link in the comments down below. ⤵ #presidentialelection2024 #DonaldTrump #KamalaHarris

❓Who will come out on top in the 2024 U.S. Election? 📺 Today, Paul #Ryan, 54th Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives and Vice Chairman of Teneo, joined our Chairman Sigmar #Gabriel for an insightful virtual discussion. With less than two weeks until election day, they explored the latest developments and what they might mean for the economy, domestic issues, and foreign policy. The talk was moderated by Jakob Flemming. 💡At this stage, it looks like the next president may face a divided government, as the congressional elections are just as competitive. The race for control of the House of Representatives is as tight as the presidential race, while Republicans seem favored to regain the Senate. 👉 Stay updated with more #USElection news and analysis on our website. #presidentialelection2024 #DonaldTrump #KamalaHarris
