José María Aznar, former Prime minister of Spain and President of FAES Foundation, closed on Friday, March 28, in Madrid, the annual seminar jointly organised by FAES Foundation and European Ideas Network, EIN, the network of think tanks and foundations linked to the European People’s Party. The seminar, which was opened on Thursday by Jaime Mayor Oreja, Vice-Chair of the People’s Party in the European Parliament, and Javier Zarzalejos, Secretary-General of FAES Foundation, addressed populism and nationalism as factors of social distortion as well as the new grounds for increased Transatlantic cooperation. A group of forty personalities—scholars, think tank members, MEPs and American executives—took part in the sessions.
