Future Europe as a Superpower: Voices from CEE

The European Union’s future role in the world balances between a peace project and ambitions of strategic autonomy. This new ambition has also set the stage for the now ongoing Conference on the Future of Europe. Wojciech Przybylski aims to map out Central and Eastern European perspectives. What will be the responses from civil society leaders in CEE to the idea of Europe as a superpower?
