European Union Ambassador to the United States, representing the Member States where they have agreed that their interests be represented collectively, for example, in areas of customs and trade.

The Delegation of the European Union to the United States represents the European Union in the United States, working in coordination with the diplomatic and consular missions of all the EU Member States.

Role

The Delegation of the European Union presents and explains EU policy to both the U.S. administration and Congress. The Delegation also analyzes and reports on the political, social, and economic situation in the U.S., and acts as a liaison with other international organizations in Washington, D.C. Through its engagement with political actors, the media, academia, business circles, and civil society, the Delegation raises awareness of EU issues and concerns, and promotes the EU-U.S. relationship among the broader American public.

The Delegation represents the EU in matters where the Member States have agreed that their interests be represented collectively, for example, in areas of customs and trade. In contrast, the Embassy of each EU Member State represents the bilateral interests of that nation in its dealings with the U.S. government, and in areas that are not under specific EU jurisdiction. All consular affairs are dealt with by individual Member States.[1] The Delegation also sponsors the European Union Centers of Excellence, a network of university programs dedicated to the study of the EU.

Ambassadors

Dries van Agt, Ambassador of the European Union to the United States from 1 January 1989 until 1 April 1995.

Among the Delegation's former Ambassadors, three was also his country's prime minister: Jens Otto Krag, Dries van Agt, and John Bruton.
