Global Threats and Transatlantic Defense
– Security in the 21st Century
Visit by former U.S. Secretary of Defense William S. Cohen

As the world faces new security challenges, how will Europe and the United States collaborate on defense and global security matters? Must the U.S. and Europe adopt new security policies in the face of international conflicts and terrorism? And how do we handle current events in Russia and the Middle East? Are the Americans and Europeans divided by interests and strategy and the rise of China? Does NATO remain central to U.S. and European defense and security policy?

Former U.S. Secretary of Defense William S. Cohen visited the University of Copenhagen to talk about transatlantic security policies and collaboration in the face of international conflicts, terrorism and global challenges.
