Warsaw Security Forum presence at the Munich Security Conference 2025
At the 2025 Munich Security Conference, the Warsaw Security Forum reaffirmed its role as the leading CEE platform advocating for transatlantic security and unwavering support for Ukraine. With Prof. Katarzyna Pisarska moderating a high-level panel on European aid to Ukraine and hosting an exclusive working dinner on transatlantic relations, WSF played a direct role in shaping the strategic debate. The forum outlined key priorities for European security—strengthening Ukraine, bolstering defense industries, and redefining Europe’s role in global security—reinforcing the message that Europe must lead, or risk being sidelined.
