At the 2025 Munich Security Conference, the Warsaw Security Forum reaffirmed its role as the leading CEE platform advocating for transatlantic security and unwavering support for Ukraine. With Prof. Katarzyna Pisarska moderating a high-level panel on European aid to Ukraine and hosting an exclusive working dinner on transatlantic relations, WSF played a direct role in shaping the strategic debate.
