2024: the year of elections
Richard Haass, Timothy Garton Ash, Allison Nathan
Richard Haass and Timothy Garten-Ash analyze 2024 as a pivotal global year marked by democratic backsliding and a surge of right-wing populism across Europe and the United States. They argue that the U.S. presidential election serves as the decisive geopolitical event, where the policy divergence between an alliance-first Biden and an isolationist Trump will fundamentally shape the security architecture of NATO and the trajectory of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. These shifts carry profound implications for European integration, Taiwan's defense, and the United Kingdom's future relations with the EU, as Western uncertainty may embolden adversaries like Putin and undermine the credibility of international commitments.

The Future of Europe: Security, Economy, and the Transatlantic Relationship
Stephanie Flanders, Peter Beyer, Niall Ferguson, Richard Haass, Lord Mandelson, Yascha Mounk, Laura Rudas
European leaders and analysts convened to address the Eurozone's robust economic recovery amidst vulnerabilities in Germany's export sector and structural innovation deficits, while navigating a fractured political landscape marked by the rise of populism and potential autocratic drift in Central Europe. The discussion highlighted critical geopolitical challenges, including a strained transatlantic alliance driven by US protectionism and a strategic shift toward an Asian-centric global order where Europe faces pressure from China's economic dominance. Key figures such as Neil Ferguson, Peter Beyer, and Richard Haass warned that without unified fiscal reforms and a cohesive defense strategy, the Union risks further fragmentation ahead of the upcoming European Parliament elections.

The First 100 Days—and the Next 1,000
Carol Lee, Paul Atkins, William Bennett, Richard Haass, Chris Liddell, Andrew Liveris, Bill Bennett
The Office of American Innovation has engaged over 200 business leaders to advance a growth agenda focused on deregulation, legislative reforms like the Financial Choice Act, and workforce modernization to address manufacturing and STEM skills gaps. Concurrently, the administration is restructuring foreign policy by shifting toward fair trade negotiations and withdrawing from the Trans-Pacific Partnership while utilizing executive orders to lower regulatory costs for the automotive and banking sectors. Although fiscal concerns persist regarding deficits and political challenges remain from both congressional factions, the strategy emphasizes a transition from consultation to active policy implementation intended to secure a permanent voice for job creators.
