Europe is Preparing. The Baltics Want Action
About this episode
The episode discusses Europe's strategic direction and the Baltic states' expectations regarding defense and security.
In this Visegrad Insight podcast, Wojciech Przybylski speaks with Sigita Struberga (Latvian Transatlantic Organisation, Organisation Women for Security) about what the 2026 Munich Security Conference revealed about Europe’s strategic direction, defence-industrial reality and the eastern flank’s expectations of partners. We discuss: – Why ‘national interests’ rhetoric is back and what it means for the Euro-Atlantic community – ‘Rearmament without warmongering’ and the politics of long war preparation – Baltic ‘total defence’ thinking, societal resilience and the demand for measurable results – EU defence industry modernisation and the coming competition inside Europe Read Sigita Struberga's article based on this conversation: https://visegradinsight.eu/europe-is-preparing-but-baltic-states-want-action/ Subscribe to Visegrad Insight: https://visegradinsight.eu/membership-account/membership-levels/ Watch on YouTube:https://youtu.be/EIA6GLeJW7M Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4uoWUeqvhpI5ddsrbxjJnz?si=rUW2CrKqTNeGtyDafbl-VwListen on Apple Podcasts…
