Facing the Storm: Preparing Europe for the Next Crisis

Published on: 5th June, 2025

The global order is shifting, and the EU is facing many challenges. 

We need to protect citizens by better anticipating, preventing and responding to risks like cyberattacks, sabotage, disinformation and climate change impacts. 

To address these issues, the European Union is rolling out new measures under the Preparedness Union Strategy. 

But what does it actually mean? Can we cope in these challenging times? Will Europe be prepared enough? 

In this episode, MEPs Lena Düpont, Lukas Mandl and Pekka Toveri discuss the actions being taken and what needs to happen to strengthen and better utilise the EU’s capabilities in preparation for any future crisis.  

Tune in and follow the EPP Group on social media for the latest updates on making Europe and its citizens as well-prepared as possible.
