European Security After Brussels
The terrorist attack on Brussels has highlighted the need for more and better coordination of counter-terrorism measures not only in Belgium but also throughout Europe. With the investigation ongoing, we spoke with Belgium’s Ambassador to the United States, veteran diplomat Johan Verbeke, who shared thoughts on his country’s response and also on improving security strategy among the nations of the EU. That’s the focus of this edition of Wilson Center NOW.
