The presidential election in the United States of America on 5 November 2024 marks a significant turning point in US politics, as incumbent President Joe Biden will not be running for re-election. The Republican Party has already nominated Donald Trump as its presidential candidate, while the Democrats will decide on their candidate at the party convention in mid-August. This election promises to be an exciting and potentially very polarising debate, as the two political camps in the US are deeply divided.
In the discussion between US experts, assessments and forecasts will be made on the outcome of the election and its impact. The areas of politics, security and defence as well as the economy will be considered. At the same time, we will discuss the significance and consequences of the election decision for Europe and the whole world.
