On Friday, Feb 21, our long-standing partner Carl Schurz German-American Club<\/a> held a business lunch meeting with Douglas E. Lute<\/strong>, former United States Ambassador to NATO and Deputy National Security Advisor for Iraq and Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With all that has happened during and after the Munich Security Conference 2025, the topic couldn\u2019t have been more timely and appropriate: \u201cTransatlantic Stability \u2013 U.S. Foreign Policy and Security Partnerships\u201d <\/strong>Questions about the status of transatlantic relations, the future of NATO and European security is on many people\u2019s mind right now, and Lieutenant General Lute gave a fascinating talk about it.<\/p>\n

All our spring students attended the talk and even got the unique chance to chat with Lieutenant General Lute afterwards.<\/p>\n
