On July 3, Markus Garlauskas, Business Development Associate Director Nicholas O’Connell, and Kyoko Imai were published in a coauthored article, “A comprehensive approach to enhance Europe’s role in Indo-Pacific security” for the Italian defense magazine AirPress. They argue that Europe must establish a greater role in Indo-Pacific defense by leveraging European institutions, pursuing bilateral and trilateral defense initiatives across the two regions, expanding European military engagement in the region, and establishing closer defense cooperation between Europe and key Indo-Pacific partners.
