Policy paper by Ondřej Ditrych seeks to capture how recent strategic trends and Russia’s assertive revisionism in the Eastern approaches – a manifestation of a more general transition of the international system to a less multilateral and more multipolar one, combined with uncertainty about the future role of the U.S. in European security in particular play out in the case of the Czech Republic’s future role in EU military operations in the near- to medium term.
Dr. Ondrej Ditrych is the director of the Institute of International Relations Prague. His current research interests include terrorism and revolutionary violence in global politics, NATO and European security, ethnopolitical conflicts in the Postsoviet space and global trends and their forecasting.
