As Brussels and Washington prepare to cooperate on a range of issues, the top diplomats of the European Union and the United States discussed Thursday local time how the U.S. and Europe can repair bilateral ties during the Biden presidency, AFP reported in Brussels on Jan. 28.
EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrelli and incoming U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken stressed that a new chapter is opening in relations between the two sides of the Atlantic in light of Trump’s ouster – although a statement released later did not name the former U.S. president.
The two discussed “ways to repair, reinvigorate and elevate the ambitions of the U.S.-European relationship,” according to a State Department statement, and Blinken thanked Borrelli for “the leadership role the EU has played in recent years,” according to the report.
The two men discussed ways to “repair, reinvigorate and enhance the ambitions of the U.S.-European Union”.
The European Commission’s statement said that the most important message was “to restore the strategic partnership between the EU and the US”.
The statement said that Borelli invited Blinken to attend the EU foreign ministers’ meeting “at the earliest possible time”.
The report also said the EU stressed the need to communicate on “strengthening multilateralism and a rules-based global system” and praised the U.S. move to return to the Paris Climate Agreement and the World Health Organization.
The U.S. stressed that Washington is “eager to work with the EU and its member states to address common challenges, including the new pandemic, climate change, transatlantic data flows, and economic cooperation.
The EU said the two sides “explored a number of foreign and security policy priorities” in the context of “common challenges.
The report said the U.S. statement was more specific, talking about “continued cooperation between the United States and the EU on issues related to China.
The report suggests that this hints at Biden’s goal of either maintaining some of his predecessor’s hard-line stance toward Beijing.
Secretary of State John Blinken spoke Thursday with EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Borrelli to repair damaged U.S.-EU relations and work together to address challenges facing both sides, according to a Jan. 29 report on the Voice of America radio website.
The State Department statement specifically mentioned that Blinken and Borrelli agreed to continue “strong cooperation” on issues related to China.
In a statement, State Department spokeswoman Price said Blinken and Borrelli discussed during their call Thursday how to “repair, revitalize, and enhance the ambitions of the U.S.-EU relationship” and “underscored the importance of cooperation between the United States and the EU and its member states in addressing common challenges including the new pandemic, climate change, transatlantic The U.S. and its member states have been working together to address common challenges and strengthen economic cooperation, including the new pandemic, climate change, and transatlantic data flows.
The U.S. government has been working with the European Union and its member states to address common challenges including the new crown epidemic, climate change and transatlantic data flows, and to strengthen economic cooperation.
The new government has been working on the development of a new vaccination center in the Javits Convention Center. The newest and most recent edition of the book was released on January 23.
The government also said that the government will continue to work with the government to ensure that the government will continue to work with the government.
“They discussed the importance of restoring the strategic partnership between Europe and the United States to jointly address pressing global challenges,” the EU said in a statement on the call.
The statement said, “The High Representative and Secretary Blinken agreed to work together to strengthen multilateralism and a rules-based global system, an effort facilitated by the welcome return of the United States to the Paris Climate Agreement and the World Health Organization.
They also discussed a range of foreign and security policy priorities and challenges.” But this EU statement did not specifically mention China.
It remains to be seen whether the two sides can coordinate their policies toward China, as the U.S. and the EU have their own interests on the issue of China, the report said.
