The Future of the Visegrád Group (with Wojciech Przybylski)

Prior to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, nationalism had been on the rise in Poland. However, the war has slowly led to a shift in the country’s politics, with Poland taking in millions of Ukrainian refugees and supplying weapons to Ukrainians on the frontlines. On this episode of The Eastern Front, Giselle, Dalibor, and Iulia speak with Wojciech Przybylski, editor-in-chief of Visegrad Insight and president of the Res Publica Foundation, to discuss key questions concerning the future of Poland and the other Visegrád states—the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Slovakia: How has the war affected central European cooperation? How does each Visegrád state perceive the growing Chinese threat? What does the future of these states' relationship with Germany look like?Show notes: Sign up for The Eastern Front's bi-weekly newsletter here and follow us on Twitter here.

Ensuring the balance of power in Europe has, since the inception of our republic, been a core security interest for the US. Today, and for the entire post-Cold War period, the challenges to the European peace have emerged along the line running roughly from the Baltic to the Black Sea. This is what we call the Eastern Front. Our goal in this podcast is to better inform the American people about what’s going on there. Join us, Iulia Joja and Dalibor Rohac every week on in our discussions on what’s next for “The Eastern Front.”
