Feb. 25/26, 2010 - U.S. Consulate Ponta Delgada joined the Azores Operational Command to support the Conference “The Azores in the Geopolitics of the Atlantic” at the University of the Azores February 25-26.

U.S. Speaker Paul D. Taylor, a Professor at the Naval War College and former U.S. Ambassador, delivered what proved to be the Conference’s defining paper, “Maritime Cooperation in a Changing Strategic Environment,” highlighting that international partnerships drawing on timely regional expertise will be essential to protecting global interests in the future.

The Conference, well-attended by foreign policy experts, graduate students, current and former Portuguese military officers, and many from the general public, reaffirmed the Azores’ centrality in the historically strong U.S.-Portuguese partnership based on shared cultural values and strategic interests.
