Lawrence Freedman

What does it take for Europe to lead on defence?

Tickets £10

Guest speaker looking at camera

Europe has long depended on the US to guarantee its security. The experience of Russo-Ukraine War and the uncertainties surrounding US policy have underlined the need for European states to do more for their own security.

Renowned historian and strategist Professor Sir Lawrence Freedman asks whether Europe can rise to this challenge. Does it have the political will, strategic coherence and military capability to protect its own interests. With deep expertise in international strategy, war and diplomacy, Freedman offers sharp insight into what Europe must confront — and what it must become — in a dangerously unstable world.
