The annual gathering in southern German, one of the world’s largest conferences on global security architecture, will bring together heads of state, foreign ministers, technology leaders and experts from leading research institutions around the world.

This year’s event will focus on strengthening European security and defence and on the future of transatlantic relations, according to the Polish foreign ministry.

Participants are also expected to address regional conflicts and examine the impact of technological advances on international security.

The conference will also serve as a platform for exchanges between political leaders and executives from global companies in communications, connectivity and software.

Sikorski is scheduled to outline Poland’s perspective on international affairs during dozens of bilateral and multilateral meetings, the ministry said.

He will take part in key panel discussions, including one on countering Iranian-Russian military cooperation in Ukraine; a debate on the future of Europe’s defence architecture; a session on challenges to Western unity and identity; and a panel on hybrid threats in the Baltic region and the security of critical infrastructure and shipping.

The Munich Security Conference has been held annually since 1963, traditionally at the Bayerischer Hof hotel in Munich, southern Germany.

Last year's conference focused on Russia’s war against Ukraine, the state of transatlantic relations and escalating tensions in the Middle East.
