nations, allies, and the world. In this environment, Eastern Europe’s strategic importance is returning to Cold War levels.
The Republic of Poland, in particular, has become a key player in this new Eastern European dynamic and a potential bulwark against Russia. In this important program, Hudson Institute will host noted scholars, historians, and politicians. Panelists will consider Poland's contributions to fighting tyranny, its active role in NATO, and the country’s strategic importance in countering an assertive Russia and strengthening the security of key European infrastructure, including energy. The panel will consist of historian Andrew Roberts, Hudson Institute fellows Walter Russell Mead and John Fonte, and Polish Senator and Minister Anna Maria Anders.
