What are frozen conflicts? Did you know that over 3 million people living in Eurasia today are affected by frozen conflicts? Their lives have been frozen in these conditions of political uncertainty and insecurity because while these armed conflicts have been suspended, no peace treaties have been agreed upon to permanently end them.
In this episode, we are honoured to have Ambassador Thomas Greminger, Director of the Geneva Centre for Security Policy (GCSP) and former Secretary General of the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) from 2017 to 2020, to shed light on how to harness the potential of trade for peace in frozen conflicts.
With a lifelong career in peace and security, Ambassador Greminger shares with us his views on frozen conflicts in Eurasia and how trade can be used as a confidence-building measure (CBM) in peacebuilding.
Guest: Ambassador Thomas Greminger, Director of the Geneva Centre for Security Policy (GCSP) and former Secretary General of the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE).
Host: Mr. Axel M. Addy, Former Minister of Commerce and Industry and Chief Negotiator of Liberia's accession to the WTO.
