Security in Focus: Poland鈥檚 EU Presidency and the Transatlantic Alliance in 2025

On January 1, 2025, Poland assumed the EU Council Presidency at a time of heightened security challenges, including the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine, foreign election interference, and persistent hybrid attacks targeting Europe鈥檚 critical infrastructure. This presidency also coincides with the start of new leadership on both sides of the Atlantic. Poland鈥檚 primary focus will be to bolster Europe鈥檚 security and defense, with an emphasis on strengthening cooperation with the United States. This raises important questions about the common and divergent security challenges across the Atlantic.  What impact could the EU鈥檚 growing role as a security provider have on the transatlantic relationship and the NATO alliance? 

Join us for a discussion, both in-person and online, on these critical questions as Poland鈥檚 EU leadership shapes the next six months of transatlantic cooperation. Our conversation, organized in cooperation with , will feature experts working on transatlantic security.
