The regions

Central Europe

Czechia · Hungary · Poland · Slovakia

NATO and the EU’s eastern flank: defence spending, energy supply away from Russia, rule-of-law disputes with Brussels, and manufacturing moving east from Germany.

The Baltics

Estonia · Latvia · Lithuania

Front-line states on Russia’s border: hybrid pressure, incidents on undersea cables and energy links, sanctions enforcement and transit to Kaliningrad.

Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova and Romania

Belarus · Moldova · Romania · Ukraine

The war in Ukraine and its spillover: the front line, strikes on energy and logistics, Black Sea shipping, reconstruction, Belarus’s role, and the exposure of Moldova and Romania on the border.

Russia

Sanctions and their enforcement, the wartime economy, asset seizures and exit terms for foreign companies, and pressure on Russia’s neighbours.

The Balkans

Albania · Bosnia & Herzegovina · Bulgaria · Croatia · Kosovo · Montenegro · North Macedonia · Serbia · Slovenia

EU accession and its stalls, Serbia–Kosovo tensions, Bosnia’s institutional crises, elections and street protest, and investment from China, Russia, Turkey and the Gulf.

Turkey

A swing power between NATO, Russia and the Middle East: currency and inflation risk, elections and the courts, trade with Russia under sanctions scrutiny, and Turkish contractors across the region.

The Caucasus

Armenia · Azerbaijan · Georgia

Armenia–Azerbaijan normalisation, Georgia’s politics and its relations with the EU, new transit corridors between Europe and Central Asia, and Russian and Iranian influence.

Central Asia and Mongolia

Kazakhstan · Kyrgyzstan · Mongolia · Tajikistan · Turkmenistan · Uzbekistan

The Middle Corridor, re-export trade to Russia and secondary-sanctions exposure, critical minerals, water and energy disputes, and succession politics.

The Middle East and North Africa
