February 4, 2025

As we enter 2025, the full-scale Russian aggression against Ukraine is now in its third year. At the same time, the European Union faces numerous uncertainties.

A new report, prepared by the Jan Nowak-Jeziorański College of Eastern Europe in cooperation with us and Austausch e.V., examines key challenges, including:

📌 The transatlantic community’s approach to Russia
📌 The impact of German anti-establishment parties on support for Ukraine
📌 Declining Polish solidarity with Ukraine
📌 Divergences and convergences in Polish-German security perspectives

This report was published by the Jan Nowak-Jeziorański College of Eastern Europe in Wrocław in collaboration with the Warsaw Office of the Heinrich Böll Foundation.
