He will be introduced by Hudson Visiting Fellow Tomas Janeliūnas of Vilnius University. \n\n\n\nWatch live: A Conversation with Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis ahead of the Washington Summit | Hudson Institute \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nSpeakers: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Gabrielus Landsbergis\, Foreign Minister of Lithuania \n\n\n\nUpon taking office as foreign minister of Lithuania in December 2020\, Gabrielius Landsbergis quickly made a name for himself as one of Europe’s most effective diplomats. Early in his term\, he announced that Lithuania would no longer participate in the Cooperation between China and Central and Eastern European Countries (China-CEEC) format; Estonia and Latvia withdrew the following year. Moreover\, since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine\, Landsbergis has outspokenly defended Ukrainian sovereignty and denounced Russia’s occupation. In fact\, his clarity on the threat Russia poses goes back years. As he put it in June 2024\, “I’m Lithuanian\, and we strongly disapproved of Russian imperialism before it was common to do so.” \n\n\n\nFurthermore\, Foreign Minister Landsbergis has time and again made the case for the transatlantic alliance and underscored the importance of a strong American presence in Europe. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPeter Rough\, Senior Fellow and Director of the Center on Europe and Eurasia at Hudson Institute. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTomas Janeliūnas\, Visiting Fellow in the Center on Europe and Eurasia at Hudson Institute. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nInquiries: msnow@hudson.org URL:https://www.estosite.org/event/a-conversation-with-lithuanian-foreign-minister-gabrielius-landsbergis-ahead-of-the-washington-summit/ LOCATION:California CATEGORIES:Advocacy,Lithuania,Online Discussion,Security,Security and Baltic Cooperation,Ukraine,Virtual gathering ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.estosite.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/President-Landsbergis.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240710T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240711T170000 DTSTAMP:20260405T081006 CREATED:20240709T035826Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240710T165859Z UID:10817-1720602000-1720717200@www.estosite.org SUMMARY:NATO Public Forum DESCRIPTION:Marking 75 years of the Alliance\n\n\n\nSeventy-five years ago\, 12 countries signed the North Atlantic Treaty in Washington\, D.C. to ensure their collective defense in an unpredictable world. \n\n\n\nThis year\, 32 NATO Allies will meet again in Washington\, D.C. to make key decisions on how to continue to protect their one billion citizens as the world faces the most dangerous security environment since the Cold War. \n\n\n\nParallel to this meeting of leaders at the Washington Summit\, the city will host the NATO Public Forum – an event that aims to promote a better public understanding of NATO’s policies\, goals and decisions through dialogue and engagement with a unique and diverse group of stakeholders.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nRegister here for link\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nMore information about the event is available at https://natopublicforum.org\n\n\n\nThis event is co-hosted with the United States Government in collaboration with the Atlantic Council\, the Center for a New American Security (CNAS)\, GLOBSEC\, German MArshall Fund of the United States (GMF) and the Hudson Institute.

Registreerimine on tänasest avatud. \n\n\n\n2024.a. laagriaasta teema on jõulud eesti rahvakalendris\, kus kümne päeva jooksul\, 17.-26. juulil\, tutvume jõulude kombestikuga\, mis algab luutsipäevast ja kestab kuni kolmekuningapäevani. Vanade eestlaste jõuluaja peategelane ei olnud mitte punases mantlis jõuluvana\, vaid hoopis tagasihoidlikumas rõivas jõulusokk\, karu või hani. Laulame-mängime\, jagame jõuluteemalisi teadmisi\, oskusi ning laseme laagrilistel endil erinevates töötubades kõike ise järele proovida. Teeme ise jõulusoku ning tutvume Skandinaaviast Eestisse tulnud jõulusantimise traditsiooniga.  \n\n\n\nLõimeleer on suvelaager\, mis lõimib väliseesti noori ja peresid\, tagasipöördujaid ning Eestiga seotud mitmekultuurilisi inimesi Eestiga. Laagris saab suhelda eakaaslastega\, õppida rahvapärast laulu-tantsu-mängu\, metsas mustikal käia\, end suitsusaunas puhtaks küürida\, sõita hobusega ja palju muud.  Koolitunni stiilis õppimist ei toimu. Töökeel on küll eesti keel\, kuid vajadusel oleme tegevusi selgitanud üle ka inglise keeles ja nii oleme alati hästi hakkama saanud. Kaheksa tegevusaasta jooksul on meie laagrites osalenud lapsi USAst\, Kanadast\, Austraaliast\, Rootsist\, Norrast\, Kasahstanist\, Soomest\, Iirimaalt\, Lätist\, Suurbritanniast\, Uus-Meremaalt\, Šveitsist\, Itaaliast\, Saksamaalt\, Hispaaniast\, Prantsusmaalt\, Belgiast\, Luksemburgist\, Norrast ja loomulikult ka Eestist. Väga paljud lapsed tulevad aasta-aastalt uuesti\, et kohtuda vanade tuttavate laste ja kasvatajatega. Sel ootame laagrisse ka veidi vanemeiad noori ehk siis soovituslik vanusegrupp on 10-18 aastat. \n\n\n\nTihtipeale sooviksid laagrimelust osa võtta ja eesti keelt harjutada ka lapsevanemad\, samuti väiksemad lapsed\, kellele ööd võõras kohas võivad tunduda liiga hirmutavad. Selliseks puhuks on Perelõimeleer\, kus päeval lapsed seiklevad teiste laagrinoortega\, õhtul poevad emme-issi kaissu tudule. \n\n\n\nLaager toimub kümnepäevasena: 17.-26 juulil (esialgselt ajakava näed\, kui klikid laagri alguse kuupäevale: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/embed?src=mtu.loimeleer@gmail.com&ctz=Europe/Tallinn). \n\n\n\nVahetusi on seekord vaid üks\, nii et kes tahab kindlalt laagrisse pääseda\, peaks varakult registreeruma. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://www.instagram.com/loimeleerlased/ URL:https://www.estosite.org/event/loimeleer-lastelaager-eestis/ LOCATION:California END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240724T010000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240729T005959 DTSTAMP:20260405T081006 CREATED:20240725T022416Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240725T022526Z UID:10886-1721782800-1722214799@www.estosite.org SUMMARY:Chicago Eesti Kooli Suvelaager DESCRIPTION: URL:https://www.estosite.org/event/chicago-eesti-kooli-suvelaager/ LOCATION:Chicago Eesti Maja / Chicago Estonian House\, 14700 Estonian Ln\, Riverwoods\,\, Illinois\, 60015-3553 CATEGORIES:Chicago,Community,Culture,Education,Estonian Culture,Family activities,Opportunities ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.estosite.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/chicago-eesti-kooli-laager-suvelaager-2024.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Chicago Estonian School":MAILTO:kool@eestimaja.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240728T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240728T150000 DTSTAMP:20260405T081006 CREATED:20240725T020525Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240725T020931Z UID:10877-1722178800-1722178800@www.estosite.org SUMMARY:Chicago Eesti Suvelaagri Lõpupidu DESCRIPTION:To mark the end of our summer camp we are holding an old-fashioned summer party at the Chicago Estonian House. $20 per person (includes lunch @ 1:00pm).
