The opening panel of the Conference was about the topic that is on everyone’s mind: The results of the US and EU elections. The panellists agreed that there is a real danger that the US would adopt a more isolationist foreign policy, and that Trump’s victory will inspire authoritarian and illiberal leaders around the world.
The Belgrade Security Conference BSC 2024 is officially open!
The conference was opened by Srđan Cvijić, President of the International Advisory Committee of the Belgrade Centre for Security Policy. His speech began with a reference to Gramschi who said that “The Old world is dying and the new world is struggling to be Born, and we are surrounded by monsters”. Mr Cvijić expressed that the monsters of our time are Autocracy, Nationalism and Polarisation, which cause the new generations to grow up in uncertainty. In response to this he asked us not to despair, and to use this last moment to rise up in the defence of humanity.
