Europe is underestimating a strategic shift in modern warfare: the intentional targeting of critical infrastructure. Russia has targeted Ukrainian civilian and critical infrastructure for years, but such energy systems have become central in the Iran War. Energy infrastructure is a particular focus: Strikes on gas and oil facilities illustrate how quickly economies can be destabilized by disrupting power grids, industrial production, and civilian supply. The resilience of critical infrastructure must move to the center of Germany’s and Europe’s defense and security agenda.

In order to discuss the latest developments, the DGAP and the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom invited a panel of experts to assess the EU’s current energy security prospects.

Europe and Eurasia: Toward a New Model of Energy Security

Der Gazprom-Vorstandsvorsitzende Alexei Miller und der russische Energieminister Alexander Nowak zum europäischen Energiemarkt

Ausgelöst durch Schwankungen im globalen Öl- und Gasmarkt und den Ukrainekonflikt zwingen die Turbulenzen auf dem europäischen Energiemarkt die politischen und wirtschaftlichen Akteure zu neuen Kooperationsformaten. Aus diesem Grund veranstaltete der Valdai Discussion Club eine Konferenz in Kooperation mit der DGAP, auf welcher ein neues Modell der Energiesicherheit für Europa und Eurasien und eine neue russische Energiestrategie für Europa diskutiert wurden.
