France

From its regional office in Brussels and in collaboration with its liberal partners in Europe, the Foundation supports the creation of liberal French structures as a counterweight to French "alternance".

In addition, the Foundation's office in Brussels tracks political developments in France through regular analyses and interviews.

Latvia

Latvia was on the verge of bankruptcy at the start of the global financial crisis, and was only saved by a hefty financial injection from the IMF.

Switzerland

Areas of cooperation with the SMC, the liberal party of Prime Minister Miro Cerar, are also being expanded.
