Peter Spiegel has been the Financial Times’ Brussels bureau chief since August 2010.

Previously, Mr. Spiegel worked for the Wall Street Journal, covering foreign policy and national security issues from its Washington bureau, and as Pentagon correspondent for the Los Angeles Times, focusing on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Before that, Mr. Spiegel had already been with the Financial Times, which he left in March 2006 after a six-year stint covering military affairs and the defence industry. He worked from both the paper’s London HQ and its Washington bureau, and travelled extensively in Iraq and Afghanistan covering the ongoing conflicts.
