The conference highlighted the urgency of strengthening the European security structure, especially in the context of contemporary security challenges and the war in Ukraine, and the need to adapt to new security realities. Admiral Rob Bauer, the Chair of the NATO Military Committee, emphasized a new era of collective defense that requires greater readiness and resilience.
The focus was also on confronting hybrid threats, such as cyber attacks and fake news, and on Germany’s role in defense policy, which has undergone a historic shift with the term “kriegstüchtigkeit,” meaning it must be militarily prepared for high-intensity, large-scale warfare. This conference clearly showed that security challenges are complex and require joint, adaptable, and decisive action.
