The debate also aimed to present views and open the floor for discussion on the major global challenges facing the European Union in the next political cycle. The debate brought together experts at the level of national parliaments and key stakeholders based in Brussels, offering a unique platform to exchange views and formulate strategic recommendations.

The discussion focused on hybrid threats, the foreign influence of Russia and China and their efforts to weaken the European Union through economic dependencies and disinformation campaigns, especially in the Western Balkans and the Indo-Pacific region.

The EU needs to invest more in strategic communication that not only exposes the shortcomings of Chinese investment, but also effectively presents the benefits of European initiatives such as the Global Gateway.

The Czech Republic has been identified as a leader in the field of hybrid threat resilience, as a result of the existence of strategic documents, such as the Strategy for Countering Hybrid Threats, and the establishment of a wide network of institutions and working positions.
