According to the most recent National Threat Assessment, the global financial crisis and its geopolitical implications pose the primary near-term security concern of the United States. Over the short run, both the EU and the United States are attempting to resolve the financial crisis while stimulating domestic demand to stem the economic downturn.

This report discusses this situation in detail and also discusses individual efforts by both the U.S. and EU to combat the effects of the crisis.
