The Future of European Defence
The geopolitical landscape has shifted dramatically in recent years. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the policies of the Trump administration have fundamentally altered European security dynamics. Meanwhile, leaders like Macron discuss a nuclear umbrella for European allies, and Tusk considers exiting the Ottawa and Dublin conventions.
All this is happening amidst significant increases in defense spending. What does this mean for the future of European and EU defense? What changes are happening now, and what can we expect in the years to come?
Join us for an insightful discussion with Rafael Loss, an expert on defense and security policy from the Council on Foreign Relations. Together, we’ll explore current events, separate fact from speculation, and gain a clearer picture of what lies ahead for European defense.”

Europe and drugs: How are illicit drugs affecting you?
Drug seizures are increasing at European ports. At the same time, more types of illicit substances are being produced and used within Europe. This points to a growing issue: Illicit drugs can affect everyone in the EU — including you.
Perhaps you’re concerned about rising crime, especially among vulnerable young people. You might also worry about more being paid into healthcare systems due to rising treatment costs. Illicit drugs harm not only people who use them; they impact the whole of society.
Join us for a discussion with Alexis Goosdeel, Executive Director of the European Union Drugs Agency. He will share updates on the role of Europe in the global flow of illicit drugs, the EUDA’s response, and what these trends mean for all of us.
