The Trilateral Bond: Mapping a New Era for Latin America, the United States, and Europe

May 2013

Atlantic Council

Abstract

The Adrienne Arsht Latin America Center today released a report advocating that Latin America, North America, and Europe should build a stronger, more equal trilateral partnership based on a community of shared interests and values. The report by the Transatlantic Task Force on Latin America—co-chaired by former Prime Minister of Spain José María Aznar and former Senator Christopher J. Dodd—specifically argues for building an open transatlantic marketplace and initiating a stronger resource partnership through the launch of comprehensive trilateral dialogues on trade and investment and energy.
