About the Event

Germany’s new three-way coalition government composed of the Social Democrats, Greens and Liberals have released their plan to govern Germany, and have selected Olaf Scholz of the Social Democrats to replace Angela Merkel as Chancellor. How will Scholz and the new "traffic light coalition" (named for the colors representing each party) shape the future of Germany’s foreign policy in the coming years? Join FPRI's Ronald J. Granieri and Nikolas Gvosdev as they discuss Germany's new coalition government, and how this affects Germany's place in Europe and the world.
