Brussels Sprouts Live: Four Ambassadors Reimagine the Transatlantic Relationship

Today's episode comes from the CNAS Annual Conference held last week in Washington, D.C. The theme of this year's conference was “New Rules,” and nowhere is that more evident than in the transatlantic relationship. As Europe takes on greater responsibility for its own security and Washington reassesses its role on the continent, both sides are grappling with fundamental questions. What should the next chapter of the transatlantic partnership look like? What principles, expectations, and responsibilities will define the relationship going forward? Those questions were at the heart of a conversation Andrea Kendall-Taylor moderated on reimagining the transatlantic relationship. Joining her were four distinguished ambassadors: Ambassador Laurent Bili of France, the European Union’s Ambassador Jovita Neliupšienė, Denmark's Ambassador Jesper Møller Sørensen, and Swedish Ambassador Urban Ahlin. We hope you enjoy the discussion. This episode was recorded on June 11th, 2026.
