The group was led by William Debaets, CG Belgium, and also included the Consuls General of Germany, France, Ireland and the UK, along with the HK of Germany for MS, HK oWf France for AL and myself as HK of Germany for AL. We first toured the NASA Stinnet Space Center in MS, then toured Airbus' assembly facility in Mobile.

The trip was informative and beneficial for the important bi-lateral relationship between the EU and the US, highlighting cooperation, trade and investment.
