Hudson is delighted to welcome Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala for a major policy address on the future of the transatlantic alliance.\n\nSince assuming office in November 2021, Fiala has placed transatlantic cooperation at the heart of the Czech Republic\u2019s foreign policy and marshalled crucial support for Ukraine in its hour of need.\n\nAs Fiala put it in October 2022, \u201cUkraine\u2019s fight is our fight too. The Czech Republic\u2019s fight, the European Union\u2019s fight, the whole of Europe\u2019s fight. Our own geopolitical prospects depend on the outcome of this war.\u201d\n\nUnder Fiala\u2019s leadership, Czechia is modernizing its military and increasing its defense budget. It has launched an initiative to repair and upgrade Ukrainian armor on Czech soil and hosts the third-most Ukrainian refugees in Europe. Most recently, and to much acclaim, the Czech Republic has spearheaded an initiative to source ammunition for Ukrainian forces from stockpiles across the globe. \n\nJoin Hudson to hear Prime Minister Fiala\u2019s understanding of the current moment and a Czech prescription for transatlantic relations in turbulent times.
