Is European defense a sleeping giant? A growing focus on Europe’s defense capabilities will be critical for transforming Europe’s role in the transatlantic defense and security relationship.

What will a strengthened European defense look like and how will this fit into transatlantic defense cooperation? How will the EU translate the Strategic Compass and initiatives like PESCO and the EDF into a more concerted and cohesive security and defense policy with stronger capabilities? How can the EU and its Member States ensure that their efforts to increase spending and develop new capabilities avoid duplication and fragmentation? How can we close short- and long-term capability gaps, boost defense investment and innovation and further strengthen transatlantic armaments cooperation?
