New US president: how EU-US relations could improve
On 20 January, the day of Biden's inauguration, MEPs debated the political situation in the US. They also welcomed the new president as an opportunity for Europe to strengthen EU-US ties and tackle common challenges and threats to the democratic system.
Europe and America have traditionally always been allies, but under Donald Trump the US has been acting more unilaterally, withdrawing from treaties and international organisations.
With Joe Biden taking over the reins from 20 January, the EU sees it as an opportunity to relaunch cooperation.
On 2 December 2020, the European Commission put forward a proposal for a new transatlantic agenda allowing the partners to work together on a variety of issues. The Council also reaffirmed the importance of the partnership in its conclusions on 7 December. Parliament is also looking forward to closer cooperation. On 7 November, Parliament President David Sassoli tweeted: “The world needs a strong relationship between Europe and the US - especially in these difficult times. We look forward to working together to fight Covid-19, climate change, and address rising inequality.”
Both the US and the EU have much to gain from closer ties, but many challenges and differences remain. Find out what the EU is offering to work together on with the US at the link below.

With the #DSA and #DMA, Europe is the 1st continent to start a major reform of our digital space.
As allies of the free world, The European Union and United States should work closely together for a globally coherent approach.
