In this episode of Facing Coming Storms, we are talking to NATO expert Sten Rynning, Professor of War Studies at the University of Southern Denmark and Eva Sula, a former Estonian government official turned defence industry adviser also as a mentor for NATO tech innovation hub DIANA.
Following the fallout of January’s Greenland row, we are looking at the complex role of the US – now watched uneasily by many on the continent, but still at the centre of military planning. We look at institutional and geographic challenges, politics, supply chains and logistics – and what nations really need to do to keep the peace in Europe.
