Chair:
Dr Fraser Cameron, Director of the EU-Russia Centre.

Speaker:
Ariel Cohen, Senior Research Fellow in Russian and Eurasian Studies and International Energy Security at the Davis International Studies Institute

Discussants:
Mr Christopher Ross from the European Commission
Jonathan Holslag, Senior Fellow, VUB, Brussels

The event will be co-hosted by the European Institute for Asian Studies, the Association of International Advisors for Russia and Eurasia and the EU-Russia Centre.

This roundtable will examine Eurasian governments' energy security strategies, whether and how governments and corporations can find the common ground necessary to develop vast oil and gas resources in Eurasia, including the Arctic; and examine some of the recent cases, including Shell, BP, ENI, etc, and what policies should Western governments and companies pursue in view of the global trend which demonstrates a stronger state control over hydrocarbon exploration and production.

The discussion will provide a unique opportunity to debate these issues before an invited audience representing different stakeholders from industry, NGOs and the institutions.
