Navigating a Pandemic World: Global Disorders and Europe’s Role

Thu. July 9th, 2020
Live Online

A recalibration of the geopolitical landscape amidst the coronavirus pandemic means that the world is wrought with new and resurgent challenges and disorders.

Join Carnegie Europe and the European Union Institute for Security Studies for a conversation with Josep Borrell Fontelles, the EU high representative for foreign affairs and security policy / vice-president of the European Commission.

Borrell Fontelles will keynote an international panel discussion with William J. Burns, Ling Jin, Elsie S. Kanza, and Moisés Naím to explore global challenges—from the return of strategic competition and geopolitics to the future of multilateralism—and what new roles can be imagined for Europe in the emerging international landscape.

Gustav Lindstrom will provide opening remarks and the event will be moderated by Rosa Balfour.
