Security in the Black Sea Region and Implications for Europe: What has Changed?
Russia’s ongoing full-scale military aggression against Ukraine has dramatically changed security environments in the wider Black Sea Region and has sharpened attention on global security challenges. Consequently, the Black Sea Region has moved into the center of European and international focus as the ongoing war in the region threatens not only European security architecture but creates serious political and economic implications for the stability of the entire World. The conference offers a unique opportunity to discuss and gain insights on political temperatures going forward in the quest for peace and stability.
We look forward to welcoming you at the conference with exclusive food for thoughts and refreshments to boost your hunger and quench your thirst for knowledge
