Each week, the ACG hosts a discussion with a journalist based in Germany on the topics making the headlines and shaping political discourse in Berlin. Following Chancellor Angela Merkel visit to the United States to meet with President Joseph Biden, the ACG shifted the discussion from Berlin to Washington, DC. On July 19, the ACG discussed Merkel’s visit and the catastrophic flooding in Germany with Handelsblatt U.S. Correspondent Annett Meiritz.
