Practical information
Ifri and SWP will organize a closed Franco-German workshop on European and global economic and financial governance. The first panel will be devoted to the G8-G20, both to draw conclusions on the French presidency and assess future cooperation between France and Germany on that matter. The second panel will try to identify common and divergent positions on the development of the European economic governance.
The workshop is the starting point of a Franco-German seminar series planned by Ifri and SWP, and with the kind support of ASKO Europa-Stiftung and the Representation of Saarland to the EU.

Assessing the Balance of Power between Europe and Russia
The evolving U.S. strategic posture and the intensification of the war in Ukraine are reshaping the security landscape in Europe. This context calls for a clear assessment of the balance of power between Europe and Russia.
Europe in turbulence: navigating a new world order without the United States?
The foundations of the post-1945 international order, long anchored by U.S. leadership, are shifting. Amid intensifying geopolitical rivalry, democratic backsliding, and strategic fatigue in Washington, the question arises: what if the United States no longer plays its pivotal role in international security? Simultaneously, the Global South is asserting new political and economic agency, complicating the old binaries of West vs. Rest. For Europe, this landscape is both a challenge and an inflection point.
The future of space cooperation in the new strategic context
The policy orientations of the Trump II administration profoundly challenge the foundations of international cooperation in space science and exploration. This shift reflects a broader trend of strategic disengagement and weakening of multilateral mechanisms in the space domain.
