Commanding the Alliance: Perspectives from SACEURs

On Friday, December 6, at 1:30 p.m. ET. the Atlantic Council will host a virtual public event entitled “Commanding the Alliance: Perspectives from SACEURs.”

Today’s global security landscape is the most volatile and contested it has been since the end of the Cold War. Deepening cooperation between the “axis of aggressors” threatens the shared values of democracy and peace on which the Alliance was founded. Now more than ever, it is imperative for the Alliance to stand together to confront the growing challenges to the international rules-based order.

Against this backdrop, General Christopher G. Cavoli, supreme allied commander Europe (SACEUR) and commander of the US European Command, will join the Atlantic Council along with a panel of former SACEURs to discuss the challenges facing the Alliance today and the enduring value of NATO to US and allied security.
