20th Annual Review Conference on the Foreign and European Policy of the Slovak Republic

We would like to invite you to the 20th Annual Review Conference on the Foreign and European Policy of the Slovak Republic, which will be held on Frebruary 15, 2022. The Annual Review Conference is a platform that plays a special role in the public foreign policy debate. However, the uniqueness of this year's conference lies in its scope - it will evaluate a specific period exceeding one year, a period of changing geopolitics, the creation of a new security and foreign policy environment, or global transformation processes.
