Lamberto Zannier on The OSCE Approach

About the speech:

In his address, Secretary General Zannier took stock of the OSCE one year after the Astana Summit, which defined a new vision for the Organisation as a security community in an age of transnational threats (TNTs). The Secretary General considered these rapidly evolving threats, such as terrorism, organised crime, cyber attacks, threats stemming from Afghanistan and weapons of mass destruction, and outlined the OSCE's efforts to implement coherent responses based on the principles of building trust and encouraging dialogue between parties.
