Belgium, Europe, and the United States during COVID-19

The transatlantic relationship through multilateral cooperation between Europe and the United States is the cornerstone of Belgium’s foreign policy. As a strategic partner in trade, security and defense, and cultural exchange, America’s partnership with Belgium lies in its shared values in democracy, human rights, ethics, and more. As a reliable NATO ally, Belgium and the U.S. often work together within a framework of international coalitions against terrorism in conflict regions including the Middle East.

Join us on Thursday, July 30th at 2 p.m. EDT as we listen to Ambassador Dirk Wouters offer his perspective on the current state of the relationship between Belgium and the United States, and by that extension, its (U.S.) relationship with Europe. In addition, he will share insight into Europe’s response to COVID-19, the future of trade between the U.S. and the European Union in the challenging times, and the ongoing tension between the current U.S. administration and the European leaders.
