The future of European Security

10
February 2023
Hamza M’jahed & Jonathan Eyal

The war in Ukraine has been a major destabilizing factor for European security, and its future is now uncertain and complex. Initially, experts thought that the war would provide a geopolitical awakening for the European Union, but NATO has regained its purpose and is now the bedrock of security for several European states. The relationship between Russia and European countries is complex and constantly evolving, but its foundations are now completely broken, and the unanswered question remains: What will be the future relationship between Russia with the rest of Europe and NATO?

It is a teaching battle”. Yes, this politi ...
