DISCUSSIONS
“The Main Objective of NATO Is to Ensure the Freedom and Security of Allies. NATO – the Guarantee of Peace and Security?”
Why was it important for post-independent Lithuania to join international organizations and how long did it take? What are the core values of NATO that apply to every ally and every soldier? Does Article 5 guarantee peace for all NATO member countries? Is NATO enlargement an imaginary threat to aggressors?
“War and (Dis)Information. Harm, Benefit and How to Recognize?”
A large part of warfare is going digital, including cyber-attacks and propaganda. How to ensure security? How does the media verify public information and why is it important to be critical of the images that appear online? Disinformation harms and… benefits?
“Future Warfare: From Modernizing Equipment to Artificial Intelligence”
What technological innovations are being developed by those Lithuanian companies that export their production to NATO? Which technologies are becoming increasingly relevant? What are the biggest and most important capabilities of Lithuanian researchers? Lithuania, a small country in terms of area and population, is particularly capable in terms of engineering and technical intelligence.
