    2025 Poland's Presidency Of The Council Of The EU Press Conference.

    Polish Minister for European Affairs Adam Szlapka speaks during the presentation of the program for the 2025 Poland's Presidency of the Council of the European Union (EU) in Warsaw, Poland, on December 10, 2024. On January 1, 2025, Poland takes over the six-month presidency of the Council of the EU. With Russia's ongoing war against Ukraine, escalating tensions in the Middle East, rising economic insecurity, democratic challenges, and the recent re-election of Donald Trump in the 2024 U.S. presidential election, Europe navigates through difficult waters in the coming months and years. The Polish Council Presidency plays a crucial role in this respect. While security and defense are central themes, other pivotal issues such as enlargement, financial stability, and European competitiveness also shape the agenda. (Photo by Aleksander Kalka/NurPhoto)
