SUMMARY:Looking at the U.S. Election: The Race is On!
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In a very short period\, the dynamics of the U.S. election have changed dramatically: Beginning with President Joe Biden’s poor debate performance\, followed by an assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump\, and then the announcement that President Biden was dropping out of the race and endorsing his Vice President Kamala Harris\, the past few weeks have been consequential for U.S. politics. \nJoin the American Council on Germany and Atlantik-Brücke for a virtual discussion with Ambassador John B. Emerson\, former U.S. Ambassador to Germany and Chairman of the American Council on Germany\, and Juliane Schäuble\, U.S. Correspondent of Der Tagesspiegel\, for a discussion about the recent developments in U.S. politics and what to expect in the weeks ahead.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2F2217222681868%2FWN_pnY-B3_7SqSFKzDMarkrfw” css=”.vc_custom_1722268223816{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Ambassador John B.
