Diplomatic Program: The Enduring U.S. – U.K. Partnership

The Honorable Louis B. Susman, United States Ambassador to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland – Court of St. James. The United States and United Kingdom have one the most enduring bilateral relationships in the world. This unique partnership flourished following World War II in shaping a new international order, fighting the expansion of nuclear weapons, and meeting today’s global economic and security challenges. The success of this relationship is deeply rooted in our shared history, heritage, democratic values, and ability to bring forward real diplomatic, financial, and military assets to promote and defend our common interests. Ambassador Susman will discuss why the strength of our rich partnership is important in meeting today’s global challenges, such as terrorism, climate change, international epidemics, energy security, and the economic downturn. The Ambassador will also discuss the new era of American engagement in the world.
