Czech Security Forum 2024: Great Power Rivalry and the European Security Order

Original language description

The Czech Security Forum is organised by the Institute of International Relations (IIR) and Charles University’s Peace Research Center Prague (PRCP) in cooperation with the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung, the Embassy of Finland Prague, the Institute of International Studies (IMS) and the Political Science Club (PK). It targeted the topic of Great Power Rivalry and the European Security Order. A focal point of the conference was the role of NATO in the broader European security architecture. The guests from both domestic and international academia aimed at putting the European security order in the global context and highlighted the necessity to take into account the increased great power rivalry and the role of China in the understanding of security developments on the European continent. Moreover, the role of arms control mechanisms and nuclear arsenals was addressed - Russia’s open military aggression against neighbouring Ukraine and the ongoing tensions in the South China Sea that highlight the current lack of confidence-building measures, the crumbling arms control architecture, and the unwillingness to utilize international institutions for conflict resolution. The forum underscored the urgency of rethinking global governance to address power shifts and emerging threats. It highlighted Europe's strategic challenges, especially Germany's pivotal but constrained role in the post-2022 security landscape, and emphasized the need for sustained international dialogue to foster stability in an increasingly fragmented world. The talks also addressed the Czech contribution to enhancing the deterrence and defence posture of Europe and analyze the role of NATO in empowering partners, such as Ukraine, as well as other vulnerable actors in Europe’s neighbourhood in the face of evolving security challenges.
