Julianne Smith of CSIS commented on the report 'European perspectives on the new American foreign policy agenda':

“This report serves as a useful reminder that behind the unbridled enthusiasm about the new U.S. Administration lies a complex and challenging transatlantic agenda.  In an effort to start a dialogue with their new counterparts in Washington, the European authors of the report have offered an array of useful suggestions for tackling seven key issues.” Julianne Smith, Director and Senior Fellow, Europe Program, Center for Strategic & International Studies, Washington DC.
