We invite to listen to the discussions recorded during the Warsaw European Conversation, an annual conference by Polityka Insight and the European Council on Foreign Relations. In five episodes we discuss Europe’s readiness for war, digital sovereignty, the competitiveness of the EU economies, European elections and energy policy.

In today’s episode, we’ll be discussing this year’s elections in Hungary, Germany, and France. In recent years, mainstream parties in many European countries have come under increasing pressure, while the far right has been gaining ground in elections – will this trend continue in 2026? My name is Tomasz Sawczuk, I am a Senior Analyst for Public Policy and European Affairs at Polityka Insight. In today’s episode, in three conversations, I will speak with Peter Kreko about the April elections in Hungary, with Celia Belin about the consequences of the March local elections in France, and with Jacob Ross about the significance of this year’s state elections in Germany.
