The second Trump presidency seems to mark a decisive break with the value-based, liberal order that has shaped global politics since World War II. Emphasizing a more transactional approach to foreign policy—favoring deals over traditional diplomacy—Donald Trump’s return to the White House might create far-reaching consequences for our Western alliances, as well as for global governance, security, trade, and multilateral cooperation.

This shift challenges the norms and institutions that have long underpinned international collaboration, raising fundamental questions about the future of U.S. leadership on the world stage. What does this mean for Europe, NATO, and the balance of power in regions from the Indo-Pacific to the Middle East? Join 1014 and the American Council on Germany for a timely discussion with Dr. Stefan Mair, Director of the German Institute for International and Security Affairs, and Heather Conley, U.S. National Security Executive and former President of the German Marshall Fund, on how the world might navigate a new era of international realignment.

Date and Time: Tuesday, May 20 from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm
