Following the model of established gatherings like the Munich Security Conference, France is set to host its inaugural Paris Defense and Strategy Forum on March 13-14.

This first-ever event will bring together parliamentarians, diplomats, military representatives, and academics from 68 countries for a critical discussion on Europe's security landscape.

Themed "Europe at a Crossroads," the forum will feature analyses and discussions on several key issues:

  • Lessons Learned from the War in Ukraine: Experts will delve into the ongoing conflict and its implications for European security.
  • Africa's Security Challenges: The forum will examine the evolving security situation in Africa and potential areas for international cooperation.
  • The Baltic Sea in Focus: Discussions will explore the strategic importance of the Baltic Sea and its role in European defence.
  • Shaping the Future of Armed Forces: The forum will address emerging threats and consider how military structures need to adapt.

This high-profile event is expected to generate significant discussion and collaboration on critical security issues facing Europe and the world.
