Navigating the Atlantic

Since January 2025, Transatlantic Relations have entered a period of unprecedented turbulence. Washington's provocative statements on Greenland, the partial suspension of aid to Ukraine, growing doubts over NATO commitments: for many Europeans, something fundamental has broken down. But has it really? And perhaps more importantly, how is this moment being experienced in Warsaw, Tallinn, or Riga? The capitals that have been sounding the alarm about the Russian threat for decades.

To discuss this, we are joined today by Sławomir Dębski, associate Professor at the College of Europe, Natolin campus in Warsaw, a historian by training and specialist in strategy. He is the author of several books on European security.

What is Navigating the Atlantic?

Navigating the Atlantic is an euradio podcast series produced in partnership with the Chair of Transatlantic Trade and Economy of the College of Europe (in cooperation with Microsoft).
As global challenges multiply on numerous fronts – namely security and defence, democracy, trade, climate change and energy among many others – this podcast series aims at navigating the currents underlining transatlantic affairs, to shed light on all dimensions and complexities of this historic partnership.
In each episode, journalist Lolla Sauty-Hoyer from euradio welcomes one guest and showcases their personal outlook on the state of transatlantic relations in a fireside-chat-like setting.
