Initiated by a group of Ukrainian parliamentarians in 2024, the Black Sea Security Forum in Odesa has become the first and largest geopolitical event in the south of Ukraine since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022.

The inaugural forum, which brought together key figures from national governments, international institutions, and the expert community, marked a pivotal moment in the regional security dialogue, with the Black Sea Security Forum 2024 summary offering a detailed overview of the event. The discussions held at the forum provided valuable insights into the evolving security landscape of the Black Sea region. Looking ahead, the forum is expected to continue playing a crucial role in shaping international cooperation and policy on security matters in the region.
