US Chamber President and CEO Thomas Donohue called on the transatlantic community to "make history" by taking bold policy steps to further integrate the US and European economies. At an event hosted by the Atlantic Council on April 18—on the eve of the World Bank-International Monetary Fund spring meetings—Donohue had a clear message for leaders gathering in Washington: "stop all the hand-wringing." Paraphrasing Mark Twain, Donohue claimed that while the challenges to the West are grave, the "news of our decline has been greatly exaggerated." Atlantic Council President and CEO Fred Kempe moderated the discussion.
