Beyond 75: Reflections on the NATO Summit
Overview
NATO's Washington Summit celebrates the 75th anniversary of the Alliance while looking ahead to the future. With NATO reinvigorated amidst the most challenging security environment since World War II, many challenges lie ahead, from: 1) charting Ukraine's future into European institutions, 2) maintaining Alliance unity, and 3) enhancing the European pillar of NATO.
Join us on Friday, July 12 at 11am EDT | 17:00 CET as our Wilson Center experts unpack the takeaways, achievements, and opportunities offered by the summit. This discussion features experts from across the Wilson Center's regional and thematic programs, offering insight into NATO's future role in the Indo-Pacific, the Arctic, and at the nexus of climate and environmental security.

Global Europe Program
The Global Europe Program is focused on Europe’s capabilities, and how it engages on critical global issues. We investigate European approaches to critical global issues. We examine Europe’s relations with Russia and Eurasia, China and the Indo-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa. Our initiatives include “Ukraine in Europe” – an examination of what it will take to make Ukraine’s European future a reality. But we also examine the role of NATO, the European Union and the OSCE, Europe’s energy security, transatlantic trade disputes, and challenges to democracy. The Global Europe Program’s staff, scholars-in-residence, and Global Fellows participate in seminars, policy study groups, and international conferences to provide analytical recommendations to policy makers and the media.
