Transatlantic Ties: Is Europe Still Number One for the United States?
Details
Germany's International Broadcaster, Deutsche Welle, invites you to the recording of the TV Debate.
In his first year in office, President Obama declared America an "Asia Pacific nation." Since then, Europe's image in the United States has deteriorated: the Euro crisis and perceptions of "European Socialism" have shaped American public opinion. Have the US and Europe grown so different that the Old World is losing its place as the United States' number one economic, military and cultural ally?
Political heavyweights, Senator Tom Daschle and former German Secretary of Defense, Volker Rühe will step into the Auditorium of the Corcoran Gallery of Art to debate these questions and more. Experts Helga FLores Trejo and Soren Dayton will add insight from both sides of the Atlantic.
AND we want you vote on the question: Is Europe still Number One for the United States? The moderator will take questions from the audience.
Doors open for seating at 4:30pm, audience must be seated by 4:45. Filming will end at 6:30pm. Please enter the auditorium from the New York Avenue Entrance. NO ENTRANCE FEE REQUIRED!
Please RSVP to Lori.hannan@dw.de by Monday, 21 May.
