DESCRIPTION:The inauguration of Donald Trump as President of the United States marks a 
 peak in global uncertainty. Trump is widely expected to unravel a series of
  transactional deals that could reshape the global economic and political l
 andscape. Europe\, and particularly Eastern Europe\, stands to be significa
 ntly impacted. Few regions are as reliant on the United States for military
  security\, energy supply\, and economic demand. While it is broadly antici
 pated that economic ties could be strained through steep tariff increases\,
  the future dynamics of military and energy dependencies are harder to pred
 ict. The FIW 3rd Round Table event aims to shed light on the potential chal
 lenges and opportunities arising from the policies of President-elect Donal
 d Trump. Please use the registration link  to ensure your access to the ev
