Title of the presentation

American Perspectives on Privacy and the Transatlantic Relationship

Abstract

As the US and EU leaders have reaffirmed time and again, we share a common belief in the rule of law, democracy, respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms. Yet too often in the past 8 years our efforts to act cooperatively in the areas of Justice, Freedom and Security to protect those common values against those who would do them harm have been stymied by disagreements over operational details. We share general agreement on the need, for example, to share information, but continually diverge on questions of implementation that revolve around issues of privacy. Why is that? And does the adoption of a common set of principles by the High Level Contact Group portend a change or not?
