Stronger transatlantic ties enhanced the willingness of others to apply to the rules of the West. However, the transatlantic partnership was considered to be rather weak currently. One participant thought it was a “sobering-up phase” after the “Golden Age” of the 1990s. Another criticized the fact that President Obama’s “trips for troops” suggested that the only thing he was interested in was European troops for Afghanistan. However, it was wrong to make the controversial issue of Afghanistan the most important topic of transatlantic relations. Others retorted that for Obama Europe was much more than a provider of troops and his motto was in fact “With power comes responsibility.” One participant suggested that the US and the EU should conclude a “Transatlantic Charter” which included a broader range of topics than those covered by NATO. transatlantic Iran interventions Müller-Härlin B edt 20260805124322.0 9011 9011 0 0 0 0 UWED UWED ANT 2013-05-21 0 328 L 74 000000025402 2026-08-05 12:43:22 2026-08-05 BK
