On May 15-16, non-resident research fellow Emmet Tuohy participated in the Riga Dialogue 2017, an off-the-record high-level roundtable debate sponsored by the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung Baltic and organized by the European Leadership Network and Latvian Institute for International Affairs (LIIA).
Featuring current and former officials and analysts such as Latvian foreign minister Edgars Rinkēvičs , former Ukrainian first deputy foreign minister Oleksandr Chalyi, director general of the Russian International Affairs Council Andrey Kortunov, and Georgian parliament deputy speaker Sergi Kapanadze, the Dialogue – which was entitled Transforming Euro-Atlantic Security Landscapes – focused on providing policy recommendations on current challenges to Euro-Atlantic stability, both within and outside Europe’s neighborhood. Highlights of the discussions at the Dialogue will be published in an anonymized format by LIIA this September.
