Always good to be on CNAS Brussels Spouts with Tyson Barker, Carisa Nietsche Andrea Kendall-Taylor. Very strong result for Paris US-EU TTC, with deliverables that lay foundation for next meeting.

Delighted to talk with Gerard de Graaf about European Commission's current moves on digital and tech policy at #EUDFF22. Digital policy is increasingly national security policy.

Leaving Brussels was never so hard…literally. The line for passport control is about an hour. #brusselsairport

Thanks to Cecilia Bonefeld-Dahl and the great team at DIGITALEUROPE for interesting and productive discussion of transatlantic relations, digital policy and Trade and Tech Council. Atlantic Council

Do We need a Digital Bretton Woods? Short answer is yes but it won't look like Bretton Woods. Thanks to American-German Institute for publishing my musings bit.ly/3yqwI4T. If you prefer to watch rather than read, the webinar is here: bit.ly/3dZET0J

With expert colleagues Cam Kerry and Propp Ken, here are our thoughts on the new EO on EU-US data transfers bit.ly/3T75YhG. #PrivacyShield #dataflows

How real is #EU digital sovereignty? Propp Ken and I break it down in our new paper and get into specifics. bit.ly/3UoK7Tu Atlantic Council Europe Center

A pleasure to interview Věra Jourová on #Disinformation andthe #EU response. What would Goebbels have done with modern media, including social? A scarey thought that should make us all vigilant.

The US-EU Trade & Tech Council starts today. Time for the TTC to acknowledge that it is also a geopolitical body, not just tech and trade. My thoughts, with other Atlantic Council and European Policy Centre colleagues. Atlantic Council Europe Center atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atla…

Today the US-EU TTC continued support for Ukraine and revealed a strong convergence on digital — protecting children and helping researchers — and a new emphasis on decarbonizing the environment. But will business stakeholders be satisfied? ec.europa.eu/commission/pre… Atlantic Council Europe Center

Always a pleasure to talk about the US-EU TTC, esp with Georg E. Riekeles 🇺🇦 Ingrid Serup Helena Fu The White House & rupert schlegelmilch. Looking for even more concrete (not just aspirational) convergence at TTC5 in late 2023.

The EU #AIAct still has a way to go before becoming law, and then there will be the challenges of implementation. But the European Parliament vote shows that serious legislators can address this complex issue. A useful 🧵from Atlantic Council Europe Center 👇

The #EU doesn’t need institutional reform before enlargement as much as it needs political will, including in member states tempted to use enlargement to achieve other ends. See my comments with those of great Atlantic Council colleagues.

Delighted to interview Brando Benifei on the EU #AIAct for Atlantic Council Europe Center's Atlantic Debrief. Expect steady progress in trilogue; some tough negotiations but there is a will to find consensus. atlanticcouncil.org/content-series…

The US-EUSummit on Friday comes at a very geopolitical moment. What must the US and #EU do to respond? Thoughts from myself and Georg E. Riekeles 🇺🇦: bit.ly/3S4z5Vh

One lesson from this EUCO: Orban will hold the Council hostage, trading money for letting key decisions go through. Time to think again about #EU Article 7.

Looking forward to discussing an unprecedented electoral season tomorrow with ValedeAlmeidaEU, @georginaEWright, and Ricardo Borges de Castro 🇺🇦 🟧. What will #SuperTuesday mean for transatlantic relations?

The US-EU TTC is only 10 days away; what should it do to ensure its own future? Some thoughts: atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atla…

A European Commission focused on competitiveness and security, but with some way to go before taking office. Hear more in this “Atlantic Debrief.”

And no trade deal…
