Thursday, 19th February 2026, from 12:00 to 13:30 h. CET (UTC+1) Venue: Fundación Botín, c/ Castelló nº 18 C, Madrid

On the fourth anniversary of the start of the war in Ukraine, the conflict has profoundly transformed European security, the international order and transatlantic relations. The round table will analyse not only the evolution of the battlefield, but also the diplomatic prospects, the negotiation scenarios and the challenges posed by a lasting peace.

Four years on, Ukraine remains at the epicentre of a confrontation whose consequences extend far beyond its borders, testing the cohesion between Europe and the United States and forcing a rethink of the future of the European security architecture.
