The outbreak of war in Ukraine triggered a much-ballyhooed Zeitenwende, or watershed moment, in Germany. One year later, the German chancellor, Olaf Scholz, has just visited Washington for talks with President Joe Biden. What are Germany’s attitudes toward Russia, the United States, and China—and how are they reflected in Germany’s new policy outlook? Please join Peter Rough, senior fellow and director of Hudson’s Center on Europe and Eurasia, as he sits down with MP Michael Link, coordinator for transatlantic relations at Germany’s foreign ministry, to take stock of Zeitenwende and the transatlantic relationship.
