Our latest issue of LGP News examines a world in transition. From Europe’s response to transatlantic realignment and China’s long-term strategy to Serbia’s position between East and West, our contributors explore how shifts in global power are reshaping trade, investment and international cooperation.
The issue brings together distinguished voices from politics, diplomacy, economics and law, including former European Commissioner Johannes Hahn, former European Commission President and Italian Prime Minister Romano Prodi, former Polish President Aleksander Kwaśniewski, Serbian Foreign Minister Marko Đurić and Ambassador Klaus Wölfer, alongside LGP’s partners, Senior Expert Counsel and colleagues from our international network.
Contributions on the Western Balkans, Türkiye, the Gulf, India and Africa connect these geopolitical perspectives with practical questions: how to enter new markets, build reliable partnerships, assess regulatory risks and structure investments for the long term.
The legal contributions examine the reach of sanctions beyond national borders, the changing landscape of investment protection under EU law and the challenges of enforcing arbitral awards across jurisdictions. The case of Jacques Baud, whose defence Gabriel Lansky co-leads with William Julié of WJ Avocats, raises fundamental questions about freedom of expression and effective judicial protection. Further articles explore lobbying and the protection of personal rights and brands in the age of artificial intelligence.
This is also a milestone issue for LGP. It reflects the growing role of our offices in Belgrade and Skopje and deepening partnerships across the Gulf and beyond, while marking Gabriel Lansky’s 70th birthday and 40 years in legal practice. These developments give expression to the approach that has shaped the firm: combining legal precision with international experience, an understanding of political and economic realities, and a commitment to dialogue, cooperation and the rule of law.
