Today, Warsaw is hosting the “Baltic Energy Conference”, organised by @GrupaORLEN, alongside the signing of the Baltic Energy Initiative memorandum of understanding.
Against this backdrop, @OSW_eng has published a new report „A Resilient Baltic: Securing Energy, Maritime and Air Connectivity”.
It takes stock of the region’s vulnerabilities with regard to:
💡energy and telecommunications infrastructure,
⚓️ports,
🚢maritime shipping routes
✈️air navigation.
We analyse the evolving threat environment, and the measures being developed to strengthen resilience in all domains.
Russia is intensifying its hostile and disruptive activities against all countries of the Baltic Sea region — a trend that is increasingly evident in our daily experience.
Addressing these challenges requires not only stronger national resilience, but also closer regional coordination and cooperation.
