Speaker(s): Nathalie Tocci | Undoubtedly Brexit has dealt a major blow, both to the UK's role in the world and that of the EU. As one if not the Member State with the most global outlook, the damage done both in terms of material capacities and reputation cannot be underestimated. At the same time some argue that the UK's exit from the EU would facilitate integration in the security and defence field. What are the prospects for the implementation of the EU Global Strategy following the UK referendum? Nathalie Tocci (@NathalieTocci) is Deputy Director of the Istituto Affari Internazionali in Rome. Sven Biscop is Director of the Europe in the World Programme at Egmont. Ben Tonra (@Bentonra) is Jean Monnet Professor of European Foreign, Security and Defence Policy at University College Dublin.
