French TV documentary projection 'Brexit: les coulisses du divorce' (70 minutes) by Eric Albert, journalist for Le Monde and Thomas Johnson, produced by Galaxie with the participation of France Televisions.

The projection will be followed by a debate in English with the two journalists about the media coverage of Brexit, chaired by Dr. Alexandra Borchardt from the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism in Oxford.

Alexander will speak about the changing international politics of cyber; from the renewed UN negotiations on norms that begin in September 2019 to the growing work on deterrence, attribution and sanctions responding to the hostile use of cyber capabilities by states.
