ABOUT THE TOPIC
This is a crucial and perhaps pivotal time for the United States’ relationships with its European counterparts. Communication between countries, including Russia, China, North Korea and Iran that have autocratic rulers and Europe, the U.S. and Japan that adhere to the principles of democracy are polarized and antagonistic. Extremism and populism within each of these countries is putting democratic principles and rule of law on the defensive. Depending on the outcome of the U.S. election in November, can the European allies trust that the U.S. will maintain its membership in NATO or will act in harmony with Europe vis -a- vis Russia or China? How will the U.S. maintain the trust and collaboration of its European allies in a post-election era?
