European and Transatlantic Security

Within this theme, developments within the Euro-Atlantic security environment and architecture that are relevant to Swiss foreign, security, and defense policy are in focus. A particular emphasis is given to security organizations such as the OSCE, the UN, and NATO, security and military cooperation within the EU, and arms control. We also focus on the relationship between Russia and Europe, as well as the impact of current developments in North Africa and the Middle East on Europe.
