What changes can we expect in the foreign policy of the United States under the new Administration? Will President Biden be able to redirect Washington’s foreign relations with its traditional allies after the passage of President Donald J. Trump through the White House? To what extent are some of the decisions on such important issues as the Iranian nuclear pact, the free trade agreement with the EU or the Paris Agreement on climate change reversible?

The purpose of the day is to explore the foreign agenda that can be expected from the new Administration under the presidency of Joe Biden. In particular, it will address the current state of political and economic relations between the United States and the European Union, and its impact on the global governance system, to reflect on its potential future scenarios in the next four years.
