This edition of the TEPSA Experts’ Debrief, contributors confront the challenges facing the European Union, from great-power competition, to a tumultuous transatlantic relationship, and the return of war to the European continent, and reflect on what Europe needs to do to become a stronger, more credible partner at the global level, capable of sharing outcomes rather than merely reacting to them.
