2024 is set to be the biggest electoral year in history, with over half of the global population called to cast their ballots.

No date opens a more momentous crossroads (domestically and abroad) than the 5th of November 2024. The outcome of the US elections could not only affect the future of liberal democracy and its institutions but may also redefine transatlantic relations and our security environment in fundamental ways.

By bringing together key experts and practitioners of transatlantic affairs, this online Policy Dialogue addresses domestic and international trends underpinning the run-up to the elections. The event focused on the Trump trials and its effect on US elections, results of the European Parliament elections and its impact on transatlantic relations, upcoming Republican and Democratic national conventions, Biden-Trump debate as well as the upcoming NATO Summit in Washington DC.
