The English panel is focused not only at the foreign visitors, though the main actors of this workshop will be our colleagues from Great Britain and Hungary. They will share their views on the future of Europe and asymmetric wars. The panel will be closed by the new researcher at the Institute for International Relations and the world's top expert on Russia Mark Galeotti with his thoughts on whether Russia will be a prisoner of its own history even in the year 2036.
