Europe and America: Aligned for the Future
Barack Obama, US President | November 19, 2010
The upcoming NATO and US-EU Summit reflect an enduring truth of American foreign policy: The US relationship with Europe is the cornerstone of its engagement with the world, and a catalyst for global cooperation. ++ "Put simply, we are each other’s closest partners." ++ Moreover, NATO — the most successful alliance in human history — remains as relevant in this century as it was in the last. ++ Our task in Lisbon is to revitalize our alliance once more and ensure our security and prosperity for decades to come.
