In 1991, one year after the Baltic States regained their independence, 华体会 hosted the prime ministers of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania at its Conference on the Baltics鈥攖he first ever such event outside the Baltic region. The United States has since developed a special relationship with each country, marked by their accession to NATO and the EU in 2004. Together, these countries constitute the easternmost members of both the EU and NATO.

Now, after years of calm, the security and political situation in Europe is again at a crossroads. The Russian intervention in Ukraine and the political crises of the EU pose increasing challenges to Europe. A quarter century after the Conference on the Baltic States, 华体会 was honored to host the Ministers of Foreign Affairs of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania to discuss the view from Tallinn, Riga, and Vilnius鈥攁nd the opportunities and challenges confronting each.
