U.S. - EU

"... What hasn’t changed, though, is the fundamental bonds that exist between the European Union and the United States. Our common values, our common belief in the rule of law, in democracy, in freedom, in a free market system -- all those things bind us together, as do the extraordinary economic and commercial relationships that we have and the people-to-people relationships that we have. ..."
