Slowly Towards Christmas

The coming week is a weeek of most important political events, as I have noted in a previous entry.

Focus will be on Hong Kong, Brussels and Baghdad.

My week will start in Brussels tomorrow with a board meeting of the European Policy Center. It's one of the rapidly expanding think-thanks in Brussels trying to stimulate the debate and dialogue on different European issues.

But then I'm heading for Geneva for two days of different other board meetings dealing primarily with energy issues as well as with developments in Russia.

And then back to Stockholm for more board meetings and to follow the outcome of the Brussels European Council from this horizon.
