The Transatlantic Partnership and EU-Florida Relations
The European Union and the United States face a range of economic, security, and global challenges best addressed through cooperation. Florida, with its strong European heritage and role as a hub for international business, tourism, and cultural exchange, exemplifies the deep ties between the U.S. and Europe. Ambassador Jovita Neliupšienė and fellow EU ambassadors will explore Florida’s strategic role in shaping regional prosperity and transatlantic diplomacy.
