doi:10.5771/9783748945857

Summary

Russia’s war against Ukraine has created a European security order dominated by deterrence and defense. In this volatile environment, the OSCE has tried to mitigate the effects of conflict and secure both states and people. Papers in this OSCE Insights volume explore OSCE activities in an era of non-cooperative security in Europe. Topics include artificial intelligence in the military sphere, the OSCE Moscow Mechanism, how to support the OSCE Academy in Bishkek, climate security, national minorities in the Baltics, and the OSCE’s role in Ukraine.
