In this insightful interview, Gary Cartwright, publisher of EU Today, speaks with Reinis Pozņaks, Member of the European Parliament (ECR), who hosted the impactful conference "The Price of Weakness" at the European Parliament. The discussion centres on the West's response to Russia's aggression against Ukraine and the urgent need for decisive action.
Reinis Pozņaks shares his perspectives on the fundamental misunderstandings the West has about Russia's mentality and the challenges posed by democratic systems in responding swiftly to crises. Drawing parallels with historical conflicts, he highlights the consequences of inaction and the risks of allowing authoritarian regimes to project strength while democracies appear mired in inertia.
Key points discussed include:
The distinct mentality of Russia and its reliance on fear as a form of respect.
The West’s missed opportunities to prepare for conflict since Crimea’s annexation in 2014.
The struggle of democracies to compete with authoritarian regimes in delivering timely and effective responses.
The role of the European Council and Commission in decision-making, and the challenges of aligning priorities across 27 member states.
Pozņaks underscores the importance of recognising the urgency of the situation and acting decisively to prevent further escalation and ensure the survival of democratic values.
