The new US administration most likely will reach out to its European partners on many global and bilateral issues. President-elect Barack Obama will most likely demand more substantive and increased contributions from the European allies to a multitude of key projects.
 
The new US administration most likely will reach out to its European
partners on many global and bilateral issues. President-elect Barack
Obama will most likely demand more substantive and increased
contributions from the European allies to a multitude of key projects:
from stabilising Afghanistan and waging the war on terror to devising
global solutions to the financial crisis and managing the rise of China
and engaging India, and from countering Iran to making NATO more
flexible for global action. Based on surveys conducted in 15 member
states and of the European Union as a whole, this paper explores
what the EU and its individual member states expect from the United
States in the post-Bush era. Individual case studies outline the
concrete issues and fields of action that Europeans seek to address in
the transatlantic format.

Since the new US administration under the Democrat US-President Barack Hussian Obama seems positively inclined to foster the Smart Power doctrine regarding its foreign policy ventures, there apprears sufficient grounds of charged optimism that the scope of transatlantic relations/ partnership in the post Bush era would pave the way for a better future of the US-EU ties,notwithstanding the fact that some grey areas - the US-percieved Nato role in the ongoing war on terror, the EU- China relations, the EU 's diplomacy on US- Iran nuclear conflict, the EU-US understanding on the energy policies(global warming) and EU's Middle eastern role-would be the key- factors to further redefine the growing revitalising status of relationship between the US and Europe.
