The transatlantic relationship has long been a cornerstone of global politics, economics, and security. From the Marshall Plan and NATO’s founding to contemporary challenges of trade wars, climate cooperation, and digital governance, the partnership between Europe and North America continues to evolve in response to shifting geopolitical realities. Today, this relationship faces unprecedented tests.
