INF Treaty - Working Paper 29/2018

Dear Madam or Sir,

the United States may soon withdraw from the INF Treaty, a core element of European security. In December, BAKS Vice President Wolfgang Rudischhauser and I published a working paper on how Europe should react. The paper is now also available in English, and you will find it on the international section of our website: https://www.baks.bund.de/en/working-papers

The Security Policy Working Papers are intended to stimulate debate and help explain current issues.

US military commitment in Europe - Working Paper 18/2018

Dear Madam or Sir,

given US President Trump's rhetoric, there is a growing number of voices questioning America's alliance solidarity on the European continent. Do the US threaten to withdraw their commitment for transatlantic security? In our Working Paper No. 18/2018 Philipp Lange draws the opposite conclusion. He argues that America has not turned away from Europe and that US military efforts even have been increased, following a long-term strategic calculus - at least as long as continuity in the Pentagon is given.
