Lozovsky will also reflect on building resilience, in order for our democracies to be better equipped to counter hybrid threats with the rule of law serving as a foundation for a stable and secure society.
Following the moderated discussion, there will be plenty of time for a Q&A with the audience, as well as networking over some bites and drinks.
