Second FBC Annual Defence Conference, British Embassy Paris
Date: 21 March 2012
This will be a unique opportunity to look at what has been achieved over the first year of bilateral rapprochement. Industry will remain a key focus as well as military training. We will also examine the political will together with the new parliamentary dimension which should indicate the level of determination to implement the 2011 Lancaster House treaties.
Libya will be a major area of consideration as well, and the question of what lessons can be learned from this joint military intervention led by France and Britain. Other topics will include EU-NATO relationships in the near future, cyber security, terrorism and the potential threat of Iran. It is hoped that the conference will be influential in laying down a joint approach to these issues.
