Security Summit 2018 - Session II
from Friends of Europe podcasts · host Friends of Europe
The second session of the Security Summit hosted by Friends of Europe on 20 September revolved around themes of estrangement within the areas of defence and security and examined how alliances like the EU and NATO go about maintaining the commitments they were designed to uphold. From the Cold War to the present day, dialogue has remained a crucial part of international diplomacy. Speakers included José Alberto de Azeredo Lopes (Portuguese Minister of Defence); Frank Bakke-Jensen (Norwegian Minister of Defence); Benedetta Berti (Head of Policy Planning in the Private Office of the NATO Secretary General) and Jaap de Hoop Scheffer (President of the Dutch Advisory Council on International Affairs, NATO Secretary General (2004-2009) and Friends of Europe Trustee). The panel discussion was moderated by Paul Taylor, Senior Fellow at Friends of Europe and author of ‘Safer together: the United Kingdom and the future of European security and defence.’
