  • NATO's upcoming summit in Ankara on July 6-7 will focus on increasing Europe's responsibility in security matters.
  • The discussion will center on the transfer of responsibility rather than its division.
  • Experts from the European Council on Foreign Relations shared these insights during a press briefing.

The upcoming NATO summit in Ankara, scheduled for July 6-7, will place a significant emphasis on Europe's growing role in security. The core theme of the discussions will not be about dividing security responsibilities among allies, but rather about how Europe can assume greater ownership and responsibility.

Marta Prohivฤa-Janovska, deputy head of the Warsaw office of the "European Council on Foreign Relations," and researcher Ulrike Franke highlighted this focus during a press briefing. They anticipate that the summit will address the strategic shift towards a more self-reliant European security posture.

This anticipated shift suggests a move away from traditional burden-sharing models towards a more defined European contribution to collective defense. The discussions are expected to explore practical ways for European nations to enhance their capabilities and take a leading role in addressing regional security challenges.
