SUMMARY:Measuring the Pulse: German-American Relations on the Mend?
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In late November\, a new survey on the German-American relationship conducted by the Pew Research Center and the Körber Stiftung was released. After elections in both countries and a transfer of power in the U.S. earlier this year\, the bilateral relationship appears to be on the mend. Large majorities in the U.S. and Germany believe that the relationship between their two countries is good. In a marked change from 2020\, Germans are now much more likely to name the U.S. as an important partner on a number of key issues – including the environment and trade. However\, despite an improvement in opinions about the relationship\, few Americans name Germany as their most important foreign policy partner. \nIn addition to focusing on the bilateral relationship\, the survey looks at German and American attitudes on how to best address the challenges posed by China\, Russia\, and Afghanistan; the impact of digitalization; and\, the use of military force. \nJoin the American Council on Germany for a discussion of the survey results with Julia Ganter\, the Editor of the Körber-Stiftung’s The Berlin Pulse\, and the Associate Director of Global Attitudes Research at the Pew Research Center Jacob Poushter – which will be moderated by ACG Board member Dr. Charles Kupchan\, Senior Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and Professor of International Affairs at Georgetown University.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2F7616384550086%2FWN_TJUhToPGT9eaWZg3kCfjbQ” css=”.vc_custom_1638455072936{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Julia Ganter is Program Manager for International Affairs at the Körber-Stiftung\, and the Editor of The Berlin Pulse\, the foundation’s annual foreign policy publication. \nPrior to joining the Körber-Stiftung\, she coordinated the Task Force for Protecting Europe from Economic Coercion at the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR).
