In this episode, we sat down with Javier Niño Pérez, Director/Deputy Management Director for the Americas at the European External Action Service, and Cristina Lobillo Borrero, Director of Energy Policy at DG ENER of the European Commission, for our first in-person event and interview since the onset of the pandemic. We discuss policy and diplomatic priorities for EU-Latin American relations and explore topics such as the European Green Deal, digital transformation, and more.
