Carl Bildt
Former Prime Minister of Sweden
What kind of Europe will we see in 2050: one in decline or entering a new golden age? Carl Bildt, former Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs of Sweden, has spent decades at the heart of European politics and diplomacy. From signing Sweden’s EU accession treaty to mediating peace in the Balkans as EU Special Envoy to the former Yugoslavia and co-chair of the Dayton Peace Conference, he has been at the table for some of the continent’s most decisive moments. Today, as Co-Chair of the European Council on Foreign Relations and WHO Special Envoy, he continues to shape the debate about Europe’s place in the world.
