Discussion
Details
Currently, the prospect of a EU-US free trade agreement takes top priority in any discussion of transatlantic relations. The agreement would re-shape the future of trade and industry on both sides of the Atlantic, but excitement over newly opened negotiations has been overshadowed by recent reports of NSA data surveillance in Europe. Elmar Brok and U.S. correspondents of the German press corps in Washington will discuss implications and bearings of these latest developments as they relate to the future of transatlantic relations.
