SUMMARY:Atlantic Council Talk: Securing the Eastern Flank: A Baltic Agenda for 2024 NATO Summit
DESCRIPTION:In Case You Missed it\, watch the video on our YouTube page or by clicking the button below: \n\n\n\n\nWatch video \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nJoin in person or online to attend the Atlantic Council’s Transatlantic Security Initiative\, in the Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security\, for a public event exploring the Baltic states’ priorities for the upcoming NATO Summit in Washington\, DC. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nSince last year’s Summit in Vilnius\, Lithuania\, the security landscape in NATO’s eastern flank has shifted significantly. New defense plans and strong defense spending\, coupled with the historic accession of Sweden and Finland\, has reorganized the Baltic Sea into a “NATO lake.” Despite this major step forward for regional security\, ongoing Russian aggression against Ukraine demands a continued focus on stability. The NATO Summit taking place in Washington\, DC\, presents a pivotal opportunity to solidify allied gains made since last July and send a strong signal to Moscow amid continuing war on the European continent.   \n\n\n\nWith less than five weeks until the Washington Summit\, the Atlantic Council is pleased to welcome the Lithuanian\, Latvian\, and Estonian Permanent Representatives to NATO for a discussion exploring Baltic defense priorities and views on the future of NATO beyond its 75th anniversary. The Permanent Representatives will delve into the collaborative efforts between the US\, the Baltic states\, and other NATO allies as they strengthen efforts to bolster support for Ukraine and collective defense and deterrence on NATO’s eastern flank. \n\n\n\nThis event is part of the Transatlantic Security Initiative’s 2024 NATO Washington Summit campaign. For more information and updates on future events and publications\, follow @ACScowcroft.  This conversation will take place in-person and will be broadcast on YouTube\, X\, Facebook\, and LinkedIn. \n\n\n\nFEATURED SPEAKERSH.E.

SUMMARY:AABS Conference 2024
DESCRIPTION:The 29th Biennial AABS Conference – The Baltic Way: Unity and Giving Aid\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDaily Schedule\n\n\n\n\nEstonia\, Latvia\, and Lithuania have for over the past century shown the benefits of shared action and solidarity. The three states sought recognition of their independence following World War I\, and following World War II – through the years of Soviet occupation – they maintained that recognition through collaborative efforts. In recent decades the joint efforts of their peoples were seen in the peaceful Baltic Way demonstration in August 1989 when Balts joined hands from Tallinn to Vilnius across a distance of 600 kilometers\, and in the three countries’ together joining NATO in 2004. Today\, the three Baltic countries are leading the world in per capita aid to Ukraine after Russia’s invasion in February 2022.  \n\n\n\nGathering at the 29th biennial conference of the Association for the Advancement of Baltic Studies (AABS)\, to be held on the campus of Yale University on June 13-16\, 2024\, will be hundreds of people dedicated to the study of the peoples and lands around the Baltic Sea. The conference features panels from all fields of the humanities and social sciences\, education\, technology\, transnational security\, safety\, and well-being. The conference draws attention to the larger shared space throughout the Baltic Sea region as well as to the role the peoples of the Baltic are playing on an all-European and global scale. The conference\, held on location\, is co-hosted by Yale University and the University of New Haven. \n\n\n\nEANC is a proud sponsor of this impactful conference.  \n\n\n\n\nProgram overview \n\n\n\nProgram Schedule by Day
