West is not learning from Ukraine and that is terrifying | Ian Brzezinski
“Western hesitation in supporting Ukraine has raised concerns about declining political resolve despite overwhelming strategic advantages. Has the West lost the will to act decisively in defending its own values and interests?
“We’re strategically timid. I think we’ve kind of lost the will and commitment to our values and interests that enabled us to win the Cold War so effectively without firing a shot,” Ian Brzezinski, Senior Fellow at the Atlantic Council, told TVP World on the sidelines of the Impact ‘26 conference in Poznań, Poland.
Why hasn’t the West fully leveraged its strategic advantage over Russia? Can Ukraine sustain its resistance without stronger support? And does the outcome of this war define the future of European security?
Join TVP World’s Diana Skaya and her guest, as they explore Western strategic hesitation, the war in Ukraine, and the future of transatlantic security.
