Many thanks to British Army Headquarters in Andover for hosting a truly excellent PS21 discussion last night – unfortunately only open to serving personnel – on the changing nature of conflict. A really great panel – including PS21 global fellow Erik Lin Greenburg and former UK Director Special Forces Lt-Gen Graeme Lamb.

The discussion was off the record but very thought-provoking on questions such as whether the West is truly in a state of peace, war or somewhere in the middle. Those are issues will continue to probe, not least in our Baltic scenario discussion on Thursday evening [a handful of places now available, see below for details]

We also have a really great event on Wednesday, September 14 to commemorate the fifteenth anniversary of 9/11. Look forward to seeing those of you in London there…
