Happy Holidays from Strategic Europe!
At the end of a tumultuous year, Strategic Europe takes a moment to thank our readers for your inspiration, support, and engagement.
Published on Dec 19, 2014
Dear loyal, recent, and new readers:
We are going to take a break after a tumultuous year. Foreign policy has never been so challenging. Predictability is precious and rare. One thing is certain: it is our huge gratitude to all our readers for your contributions in print and across social media and for supporting and engaging with us in such an inspiring way. We wish you all very peaceful holidays and a great start to 2015. We resume our Strategic Europe blog on January 5, 2015.
