Iryna Krasovskaya and Andrei Sannikov are attending Halifax International Security Forum in Canada.

The German Marshall Fund of the United States (GMF), in cooperation with the Government of Canada, has launched the Halifax International Security Forum in Halifax, Nova Scotia to address the top global security
challenges facing the transatlantic community. This major international conference is the first of its kind on the North American continent.

Serious conferences about regional and global security have traditionally taken place outside of the United States and Canada. However, no country and no continent are immune to the world’s new dangers. GMF’s mission to promote cooperation between North America and Europe on a wide range of concerns led to the creation of a major international security conference in Canada. Over two days, global leaders in politics, government, business, academia, and media will participate in an interactive, informal setting for in-depth debate and intellectual exchange on pressing strategic issues.By bringing together leading policy and opinion makers from around the world, Halifax Forum will help shape a new transatlantic security agenda that can adapt to changing global realities and emerging threats.

«We Remember» Foundation president Iryna Krasovskaya as well as «European Belarus» leader and former Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei Sannikov were invited to represent Belarus. Andrei Sannikov, together with Mr. Christian Wernicke, U.S. Correspondent of Sueddeutsche Zeitung and Mr. James Appathurai, NATO Spokesman, will be the speaker at the session «The Fall of the Wall: New World or New World Order».
