The EU and its Eastern Neighbors: Conference at the American Center

September 25, 2007

On Friday September 21, the American Center hosted a workshop about European Union policies towards its Eastern neighbors. Part of the program was also a panel about current relations with Russia, with views from both Europe and the U.S.

The Center invited Nikolas Gvosdev, editor of The National Interest, to speak on the American perspective. Among  the other distinguished panelists were Prof. Christian Lequesne from the London School of Economics, Viktor Makarov from the Baltic Forum  and Alexei Kuznetsov from Center for European Studies in Moscow.

The variety of views represented by different speakers ensured a very lively debate with an audience of think-tankers, government officials, diplomats and students.

The event was coorganized by the Czech think-tank Europeum, Prague Security Studies Institute and the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung.
