David McAllister, Chairman of the European Parliament's Committee on Foreign Affairs, will give this year's speech. He will analyze the political consequences of the US elections for Europe and provide impulses for a future-proof EU foreign policy.
The speech will be followed by a panel discussion moderated by Dr. Christian Johann, Director of the European Academy Berlin. David McAllister will be joined by Dr. Emily Haber, former German ambassador to the USA, and Prof. Dr. Carlo Masala, Professor of International Politics at the Faculty of Political and Social Sciences at the University of the Federal Armed Forces in Munich, who will share their views.
The event is aimed at a broad audience - interested citizens, political decision-makers and representatives from the media, business, science and civil society are invited.
The Europe Speech is being held in cooperation with Allianz SE, the Schwarzkopf Foundation Young Europe and the European Academy Berlin.
