European countries, particularly in the eastern and southern parts of the continent, face significant challenges including migration, security, and economic development. What can the US do to support our allies in the region?

Director General Danielsson was joined by Hudson fellows Charles Davidson and Benjamin Haddad. Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Craig Kennedy moderated the conversation.

__Hudson Institute was pleased to host this discussion in conjunction with the Delegation of the European Union to the United States.__
