‘Parliaments in dialogue’: Bringing Westminster and Brussels closer together to defend Europe

This event hosted by UK think tank Chatham House discusses how to improve defence cooperation between Britain and Europe.

This panel discussion is the first in a new series, ‘Parliaments in dialogue’–convened in partnership between Chatham House and the European Parliament Liaison Office in the UK.

Amid increasing uncertainty about the general uncertainty with regard to security and defence matters, this first event will focus on security and defence cooperation.

The European Parliament will be represented by MEP Sandro Gozi, co-chair of the EU-UK Parliamentary Partnership Assembly and a key Member of the European Parliament on security and defence questions.

It will bring members of the UK and European Parliaments together with defence experts for direct engagement on questions central to EU-UK relations. Such as: how can Brussels and Westminster work to align their strategic ambitions and to deepen practical collaboration?

Chatham House’s mission is to help governments and societies to build a secure, sustainable, prosperous and just world. We do this by convening meetings of the people and organizations that can bring about change.

The panel discussion will be followed by a drinks reception.
