A Debrief on the German Elections and the Post-Merkel Era

Please join the Project on Europe and the Transatlantic Relationship for a discussion with Dr. Daniela Schwarzer, Senior Fellow with the Project on Europe and Executive Director for Europe and Eurasia at the Open Society Foundations, about the consequential German federal elections which took place on 26 September 2021. After nearly two decades of leading Germany and Europe through various domestic and foreign policy challenges, incumbent Chancellor Angela Merkel will step down. What do the results of this election mean for Germany, Europe’s largest economy, the European project, and Europe’s role in the world? Karl Kaiser will moderate the discussion.
