THE LIVESTREAMING OF ROBERTA METSOLA'S SPEECH ONLY WILL BE AVAILABLE HERE
Europe’s security landscape is deteriorating at an alarming pace, making the role of the European Parliament more crucial than ever. As the EU’s only directly elected institution, it plays a key role in granting legitimacy to build a true European Defence Union and a Single Market for Defence.
With the US shifting its defence policy away from Europe, this event will discuss the current and future trends of European defence and security, how defence fits in the priorities of the European Parliament, the impact of new transatlantic realities and complementarity with NATO. The discussion will also cover the European Commission’s release of the White Paper on the future of European defence.
This event is part of the EPC Thought Leadership Forum on defence and security, an exclusive series that brings together top decision-makers across various sectors for a frank and engaging conversation about the most pressing challenges and opportunities facing Europe today.
Participation is open to EPC members only, the media, and EU officials
