SUMMARY:Understanding Germany: One Year After the Zeitenwende
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \n\n\nThree days after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine last February\, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz addressed a special session of the Bundestag on Sunday\, February 27. In his Zeitenwende speech\, he laid out a set of transformative – and ambitious – measures for Germany’s foreign\, security\, and energy policies. The speech was perceived as a major turning point for Germany – and for the security architecture of Europe. One year later\, the demand for German leadership is more significant than ever. \nAs we mark the anniversary of the speech\, there are a host of open questions\, including: To what degree has the war in Ukraine changed not only German politics and public opinion\, but that of its allies? How should European stakeholders be involved in Russia’s aggression in Ukraine? What is the future security architecture of Europe? How will the Zeitenwende impact relations with actors like Russia and China? \nTo address these questions\, join us for a virtual discussion with ACG Young Leader alumna Dr. Constanze Stelzenmüller. She is an expert on German\, European\, and transatlantic foreign and security policy and strategy. \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2F6316770757223%2FWN_HlsLoIN2RVGSXx3Ch4Ntmg” css=”.vc_custom_1677077737781{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Dr. Constanze Stelzenmüller (1993 ACG Young Leader) is the director of the Center on the United States and Europe and the inaugural holder of the Fritz Stern Chair on Germany and Transatlantic Relations at the Brookings Institution.
