During his recent trip to Europe, President Biden stressed that the world’s liberal democracies are locked in a “strategic competition” with China for economic and political leadership. The United States and Europe need to forge a united front to meet the multifaceted challenge from China, including economic nationalism and predatory trade practices; harsh domestic repression of individual liberties and human rights; militarization of the South China Sea; and, Beijing’s aggressive attempts to intimidate and silence critics around the world.
Please join the Progressive Policy Institute for a timely dialogue between key US and EU policymakers on how to craft a stronger transatlantic response to China. Speakers include U.S. Representatives Gerry Connolly (VA-11) and Ami Bera (CA-07), both members of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, and MEP Reinhard Bütikofer of the Greens-European Free Alliance Party.

PPI President Will Marshall will moderate the conversation.
