German Foreign Policy in Flux: Assessing Berlin’s Leadership

Tue. December 5th, 2023
Carnegie Europe & Live online

In 2023, Germany’s foreign policy evolved considerably. The country adopted its first national security strategy and took decisive action to align its positions more closely with those of its allies.

Yet, much remains to be done to tackle the challenges ahead. The EU’s enlargement process, Russia’s continuing war against Ukraine, the West’s confrontation with China, and the growing influence of emerging powers in the Global South all require stronger German leadership on the European stage.

To mark the launch of The Berlin Pulse, the Körber-Stiftung’s annual flagship report on foreign and security policy issues, Carnegie Europe invites you to a public event on Germany’s and the EU’s foreign policy trajectories. Julia Ganter will present the results of the public opinion survey conducted for the report. A panel discussion with Viola von Cramon-Taubadel and Pierre Vimont, moderated by Alexandra von Nahmen, will follow.

There will be a light reception after the event.

This event is hosted in cooperation with the Körber-Stiftung.
