SUMMARY:A framework of multilateralism between the US – Japan – India – EU for World Peace and Security
DESCRIPTION:On October 13\, 2022\, leaders of the Boston Global Forum and the Michael Dukakis Institute will discuss a framework of multilateralism between the US – Japan – India – EU\, encompassing the economy\, defense and special tech. This Framework will be present at the Riga Confeerence 2022 on Oct 22\, 2022. \nGovernor Michael Dukakis\, co-founder and Chair of the Boston Global Forum\, will lead this special high-level meeting. \nBGF will contribute a new framework to maintain and protect peace and security. BGF leaders also will discuss solutions to prevent Russia from using nuclear weapons. \nRussia’s invasion of Ukraine makes at least one thing clear: It’s time for us to update how we think about nuclear weapons. For the first time in the nuclear era\, one country used loudly issued nuclear threats — repeated just last week — to deter other countries from intervening in a large-scale conventional war of aggression. \n \nDate: October 13\, 2022 \nVenue: Michael Dukakis House

SUMMARY:US-EU-Japan-India: Pillars for World Peace at the Riga Conference 2022
DESCRIPTION:14:30 – 15:30 Riga time (GMT+3)\, Oct 22\, 2022 \nVenue: Autumn Stage\, The National Library of Latvia \nEXPLORING MULTILATERALISM FOR WORLD PEACE AND SECURITY: CONTRIBUTIONS OF US – INDIA – JAPAN-EU \nThis online discussion is organised in cooperation with the Global Boston Forum. \nThe role and relevance of multilateralism has been challenged several times during the last decade. Russia’s aggression in Ukraine has undermined trust in international organisations and international rules and norms at large. International society calls for immediate actions in order to bring the world back on the peace and security track\, which was observed and managed by multilateral arrangements. Is there any particular role of multilateral frameworks launched by the world’s leading actors? Is such a framework possible among US-EU-India-Japan?  What could a group formed by these countries offer for the benefit of world peace and security? \nMichael Dukakis\, Former Governor of Massachusetts\, 1988 US Presidential Candidate\, Co-founder and Chairman of the Boston Global Forum\nYasuhide Nakayama\, Former Japanese State Minister of Defense\nAlex Pentland\, MIT professor\nSharad Sharma\, Co-founder\, iSPIRT Foundation\nNguyen Anh Tuan\, Co-founder and CEO of the Boston Global Forum \nModerator: Prof. Žaneta Ozoliņa\, Chairwoman of the Board of the Latvian Transatlantic Organisation
