The Biggest Current Threat to the Atlantic Alliance?
Start:  Monday, May 9, 2005  5:30 PM
End:  Monday, May 9, 2005  7:00 PM
Location:  Wohlstetter Conference Center, Twelfth Floor, AEI
1150 Seventeenth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20036
Directions to AEI

As the race to ratify the European Union's new Constitutional Treaty heats up, many on both sides of the Atlantic are wondering what this will mean for the transatlantic alliance. Some argue that the Constitution is the EU's internal affair. Others wonder whether the EU is attempting to create a counter-weight to American power. Does the EU Constitution represent a threat to the Atlantic alliance? Or will the Constitution transform the EU into a more capable partner for the United States? Please join the New Atlantic Initiative for a debate between Charles Grant, director of the Centre for European Reform, and Jeffrey L. Cimbalo, attorney and author of "Saving NATO from Europe," recently published in Foreign Affairs. Radek Sikorski, executive director of NAI, will moderate.
