Europe is entering its most dangerous moment in decades. Dr Małgorzata Bonikowska, President of the Centre for International Relations (CIR-CSM), speaks with stark clarity: Russia has declared war on Europe, and the American security umbrella is no longer functioning as it has in recent years.
Can Poland and Europe continue to base their security on the United States? Why does the current US strategy send such a dangerous signal to our region? And what does it mean when, as Dr Bonikowska puts it, “the enemy is at the gates”?
The conversation delivers hard-hitting assessments of growing instability, the need for political authorities to act together beyond partisan divisions, and the imperative of genuinely securing Europe — without panic, but also without illusions.
