US-EU counter-terrorism efforts must now accept the reality of the threat of home-grown terrorism on both sides of the Atlantic. ... MoreMarch 17, 2010 | NATO Tensions No Cause for AlarmOlaf Theiler: The war in Afghanistan has exposed strains among NATO members, but these tensions do not threaten the stability of the alliance in a fundamental way.

MoreJanuary 6, 2009 | Transatlantic Exchange of Personal Data: A Costly ExperimentJulia Galaski: The internationalization of surveillance is susceptible to abuse and cyberterrorism. A means of assessing the possible side effects of transatlantic data exchange is urgently needed. ... MoreSeptember 9, 2008 | The EU and the US: Peace Brokers for a Secure GeorgiaStefan Fröhlich: The fighting between Russia and Georgia over the separatist enclave of South Ossetia is turning into a reversion of spheres of influence and a balance of power politics in Europe. The EU and the Euro-Atlantic community must take steps to mediate new developments. ... MoreGlobal Must Read ArticlesFebruary 4, 2010 | EU-US: the One Way LovePresident Obama has declined an invitation to the US-EU summit in Madrid this May due to domestic priorities. ++ Europeans face declining American interest in the EU and are considering postponing the summit. ++ Various signs prove them right; the Lisbon treaty has not yet answered Kissinger’s question: “If I want to call Europe, who do I call?” ++ The EU seems more interested in the US ... MoreDecember 9, 2009 | Why Obama's Giving Europe the Cold ShoulderAs Obama recognizes that we are moving into a post-America world he is bypassing Europe in favour of a multi-partner strategy with powers such as China and Russia. ++ Europe’s infantile attention seeking and complacency is placing it as increasingly irrelevant. ++ The problems can be “addressed only when Europeans take stock of the way the world is changing [and] decide that allowing others ... MoreFebruary 26, 2009 | Brown Must Bring the Global Agenda to ObamaNext week’s meeting with Obama offers PM Brown a chance to inject some energy into his ailing premiership. ++ But the discussion must be more than a photo-op: a closely coordination “war against economic horror” is needed and these two financial centers can be very effective if they work in sync. ++ Indeed, failing to do so was the downfall of the Bush-Blair alliance. ++ ...
