Bezpieczeństwo Niemiec w kontekście konfliktu na wschodzie Ukrainy
The security of Germany in the context of the conflict in Eastern Ukraine

Summary/Abstract: The conflict in Eastern Ukraine has caused the most serious “cooling of relations” between Germany and Russia since the unification of Germany in 1990. The conflict has reinforced the sense of threat experienced by a significant part of the German society and triggered a re-evaluation of the previous policy towards Russia, changing it into a more critical one. The conflict in Easter Ukraine has modified German security policy and increased the German government’s support for a stronger engagement of Bundeswehr on the NATO’s Eastern flank. Nonetheless, it seems that despite these new developments, the main premises of the German Ostpolitik, including Russlandpolitik, will be upheld in the upcoming years.
