The second decade of the 21st century brought Poland a range of complex challenges in the field of national and international security. Key factors included shifts in the geopolitical environment following Russia’s aggression against Ukraine in 2014, increased NATO activity on the eastern flank, and the growing importance of hybrid, cyber, and energy-related threats. Poland also faced the need to modernize its armed forces and strengthen state resilience to migration and information crises. The paper analyses the main directions of these challenges and presents the measures undertaken in response, highlighting Poland’s role as a key security actor in the Central and Eastern European region.
