„Baltic-German Strategic Engagement: Realignment after the Eurocrisis?” is a research publication focusing on the potential changes to the relationship between Germany and the Baltic States in the context of the financial and economic problems in the Eurozone and Latvia’s planned accession into the Eurozone in 2014. The policy paper also addresses the economic, political and institutional implications of Latvia’s accession into the Eurozone, with the aim of addressing the main concerns and strategic reasoning of the Baltic state. The publication was prepared for the German – Baltic Strategy Talks 2013 (Overcoming the Eurocrisis: Baltic-German Strategic Engagement), which took place in Riga, May 16-17, 2013. The conference and the policy paper are yet another example of fruitful collaboration between the Latvian Institute of Internationa Affairs and the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung.
