The Paris office of the German Marshall Fund of the United States (GMF), in partnership with the Centre d’Analyse, de Prévision et de Stratégie (CAPS) of the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, organized a private roundtable on October 15, 2013, with French and U.S. officials, experts, and academics to discuss the scope and the implications of the U.S. “strategic restraint” for the transatlantic relationship. Held under the Chatham House Rule, the one-day workshop was divided into five panels dedicated to geographical and thematic issues, and a concluding session dedicated to highlighting actionable recommendations for the transatlantic policy community. The sessions were moderated by Dr. Alexandra de Hoop Scheffer, director of the Paris office of GMF, and Justin Vaïsse, director of the CAPS.
