Russia and Information Warfare: Aims, Tools and Implications for the West
Practical information
This event is dedicated to the Russia/NIS Centre Corporate supports. By personal invitation only.
A round table with Keir Giles, Director, Conflict Studies Research Centre; Associate Fellow, Russia and Eurasia Programme at Chatham House.
Based on lessons learned from operations in Ukraine, Syria, and now perhaps the United States, Russia’s information capabilities are now described in far more ambitious and alarming terms. These capabilities are being tested on the ground: Russia is undertaking measures in cyber and cognitive domains in order to achieve information dominance over targets so as to facilitate desired strategic outcomes. The West should be aware of the implications.
Chair: Tatiana KASTOUÉVA-JEAN, Head of Ifri’s Russia/NIS Center
Speaker: Julien NOCETTI, Researcher at Ifri's Russia/NEI Center
This seminar will be held in English under the Rule of Chatham House.
This event will be held within the framework of the “Observatoire Russie, Europe orientale et Caucase” with the support of DGRIS (Directorate General for International Relations and Strategy), French Ministry of Defence.

COP31 in Antalaya: State of the Global Climate Governance, Issues, Perspectives
COPs have become a year-end marathon to revigorate a world now entering the era of climate overshoot. While Türkiye exhibits the largest coal-fired power generation in OECD Europe, it has embraced the electrification agenda and aims at joining forces with Australia on fostering action and implementation. This is an unusual de facto co-presidency arrangement, but one that could yield promising results. This webinar will take stock of what climate governance has achieved and of the issues still to be negotiated, and explore what impetus this Turkish–Australian partnership could provide.
A New Moment for Central Europe? Regional Cooperation in a Time of European Strategic Choices
Recent political developments in Central Europe have revived the debate about the future of regional cooperation and the Visegrád Group.
