The European Union is represented in the United States by the Washington, D.C. Delegation, which works in close coordination with the Embassies and Consulates of the 27 EU Member States. We are a full-fledged diplomatic mission and represent the European Union in dealings with the U.S. government in areas that are part of the EU’s remit. We promote EU policies in the United States, which includes presenting and explaining EU actions to the U.S. Administration and Congress. By engaging with political actors, the media, academia, business, and civil society, we raise awareness of EU issues and concerns, and promote the importance of the EU-U.S. relationship among the American public. Since 1964, the EU has also maintained an office in New York, serving as the EU’s Delegation to the United Nations.

Last week, the European Union Delegation to the United States attended the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee to experience first-hand how presidential candidates are selected in the US. Our Europe Night at the Harley Davidson Museum received "hats off" from Politico Global Playbook. Also, in partnership with the International Republican Institute, we co-organised a discussion on how the EU and the US can jointly address the challenges of engagement with China. We learned a lot and discovered beautiful Milwaukee. Our next stop is the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. #RNC
In these turbulent times, the EU has displayed unique organizational capacity and resilience. However, people know very little about the complexity of our diplomatic service: the European External Action Service. In a new documentary directed by Albert Solé, you will see the behind-the-scenes and inner workings of EU policy by following EU foreign affairs chief Josep Borrell on his missions to Ukraine, China, and Jerusalem. The documentary is available on ARTE TV.

As a gift on this #IndependenceDay, we asked artificial intelligence to create an image that represents our two continents 🇪🇺🇺🇸 coming together in support of our shared values. We liked this "artistic" interpretation of the vibrant diversity and camaraderie of our peoples. 😉 😁 #AIGenerated But in all seriousness, we are grateful for this extremely close relationship and what we have achieved together. A toast to you on your birthday, America!
