NATO in Space

NATO’s Road to Madrid

In episode four of NATO's Road to Madrid, Rachel is joined by two leading voices on space security issues from two sides of the Atlantic: Kaitlyn Johnson, Deputy Director and Fellow of the CSIS Aerospace Security Project, and Andrea Rotter, Head of Division for Foreign and Security Policy at the Hanns Seidel Foundation, a think tank in Munich. Rachel, Kaitlyn, and Andrea explain why space is so important to our daily lives and militaries, as well as how NATO's space-based capabilities could be threatened—both by adversary capabilities and by a lack of clear international norms for military conduct. They conclude by discussing how NATO might (and should) respond at the Summit in Madrid and in the new Strategic Concept.
