Description



At least since the Hiroshima G7 summit in May 2023, the United States and the European Union have been explicitly calling upon trade policy to advance their economic security. While trade practitioners have been wrestling with the related concept of national security since before the creation of the World Trade Organization, economic security is a relatively new element in the debate. As part of the AGI-Konrad Adenauer Foundation 2024 Transatlantic Trade Week, Jennifer Thornton of the Business Roundtable joins The Zeitgeist to discuss the history of economic security, how the United States and the EU approach economic security, the future of free trade agreements, as well as how U.S. trade policy could change after the 2024 presidential election.
