Russian drone swarms intercepted over Poland, Russian MiG-31 fighter jets in Estonian air space, drone surveillance of military facilities in Germany and Denmark, and airports from Copenhagen to Munich temporarily closed due to unmanned aerial interference: the war in Ukraine has begun to spill into Western Europe. NATO and the European Union have called leaders together to consider a response, while Vladimir Putin and his circle make fun of the European reaction. What message is Russia sending with these “gray zone” attacks? How are Europeans — leaders and voters — reacting to the threat? And what should the U.S. do to encourage and assist its allies at a time of questions and uncertainty about the future of the transatlantic alliance?
Please join the Progressive Policy Institute for a discussion of these important questions during a one-hour panel, with a reception to follow.
