International Security Forum in Madrid: Odesa's Participation

Gennadiy Trukhanov, the Mayor of Odesa, took part in an international event focused on security and intelligence issues held in Madrid.

The forum, taking place from May 21 to 23 in the Senate of Spain, is the 29th Parliamentary Forum chaired by Robert Pittenger, a U.S. Congressman and ally of President Donald Trump.

This event is one of the largest international platforms for discussing challenges related to global security.

This year's meeting in Madrid brought together parliamentarians, mayors, politicians, and experts in defense, digital technologies, and energy from various countries.

Ukraine was represented at the forum by its Members of Parliament and Mayor Gennadiy Trukhanov.

During the discussions, a wide range of topics were addressed, including the geopolitical implications of AI and digital currencies, as well as issues like transnational crime, cybersecurity, and energy stability.

Among the speakers at the forum were prominent senators from Spain, members of Congress, and representatives from international organizations.

Mayor Gennadiy Trukhanov actively engaged in discussions surrounding municipal security challenges, particularly in the context of wartime.

Odesa, as a frontline city, plays a crucial role in protecting infrastructure and humanitarian security, making participation in such forums critically important for strengthening international ties.
