The Warsaw Security Forum is held annually to debate security in Central Europe as well as international policy issues and transatlantic relations.

The annual conference, first held in 2014, attracts government officials, decision makers and experts from various countries.

It aims to help work out a collective response to challenges and threats facing NATO and EU countries and to deepen defence cooperation.

This year's conference focuses on issues including Russia's war against Ukraine and energy security, Poland's PAP news agency reported. Some of the debates will be held behind closed doors, according to officials.

Expected participants include Poland's Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock and British Defence Secretary Ben Wallace.
