DGAP participates with a morning briefing on the future of European Security in the DFS 2026.
DGAP’s Research Institute regularly brings together experts and high-level guests to discuss the latest developments in foreign affairs. On May 7, two days ahead of Europe Day on May 9, the DGAP Morning Briefing discusses the future of European security amid growing international disorder.
With wars in Ukraine and the Middle East and an increasingly erratic US foreign policy, European leaders are struggling to come up with solutions – a stronger European pillar in NATO, common defense procurement, and political structures that underpin a robust security architecture. There are calls for Germany to take a more active role in leading a coalition of states willing to further advance European security. Together with international guests, the discussion will focus on how Berlin can work with its allies toward a European security order ready for the challenges of the 2030s
Discussion:
- Timothy Garton Ash, Professor of European Studies, St Antony’s College, Oxford
- Aylin Matlé, Senior Research Fellow, Center for Security and Defense, DGAP
- Marcin Terlikowski, Head of the International Security Program, Polish Institute of International Affairs (PISM)
