General David H. Petraeus (US Army, Ret.)

Chairman, KKR Global Institute

Moderator:

Major conflicts and shifting geopolitical alignments are reshaping the global security landscape. In light of this, many of Taiwan’s partners are pressuring Taipei to rethink its defense posture, resilience mechanisms, and strategic deterrence. The war in Ukraine has offered invaluable lessons in asymmetric defense, civil-military coordination, and the integration of technology and innovation on the battlefield. Facing an existential threat from China, Taiwan urgently needs to incorporate these lessons into its security strategy.

General David H. Petraeus (US Army, ret.), coauthor of Conflict: The Evolution of Warfare from 1945 to Ukraine and former director of the Central Intelligence Agency, will join Hudson’s Jason Hsu for a conversation about what the war in Ukraine has revealed about the future of warfare—and what these lessons mean for Taiwanese security.
