Europe’s Security in the Light of the US Mid-Term Elections

The outcome of the American midterm elections will impact also US foreign and defense policy, including negotiations with Russia and Ukraine, Washington’s role in NATO and the Alliance’s evolution.

At the same time, NATO is changing due to factors beyond the current administration.
Europe will have to face Russian aggressivity – in Ukraine and elsewhere – while relying less on its American ally than in the past and addressing the strategic issues raised by the Russia-Ukraine war.

The interplay between US political and electoral dynamics and trends in the Euro-Atlantic strategic context lies at the heart of the event ‘Europe’s Security in the Light of the US Mid-Term Elections’, a debate organised to mark the launch of the Routledge-IAI publication entitled ‘The War in Ukraine, NATO, and European Defence: Italian Perspectives’, in which experts, journalists and analysts will take part, engaging with the audience.
