On Tuesday, September 22, at 4:15 p.m. ET, the Atlantic Council’s Transatlantic Security Initiative hosted a conversation with José Manuel Albares, the Spanish minister for foreign affairs, European Union, and cooperation.
Spain has been an active voice in shaping Europe’s response amid continued instability on the European Union and NATO’s eastern and southern flanks. Madrid sits at the intersection of Europe’s most pressing security questions, and its approach will shape the debate across the transatlantic community.
With wars ongoing in Ukraine and the Middle East and the transatlantic relationship under strain, Minister Albares discussed Spain’s vision for European security, allied burden-sharing, and the future of the alliance.
This event is part of our #ACinNY series, happening on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly. See the rest of the line-up and register for more events here.
