3-The Atlantic Bridge A close and enduring association between Britain and the United States is, in Sir Oliver Franks 's view, a main condition of Britain's capacity to function as a great power. As Ambassador in Washington he observed both the need for this association and the many forms of friction which, on both sides of the Atlantic, at the same time accompany and impede its achievement. In this lecture he examines the necessity for intimate Anglo-American co-operation, and suggests some possible ways of curing misunderstanding.
