Heavy fighting continues in eastern Ukraine – with drone and missile attacks on major cities and infrastructure. Russia's President Putin is leading his war of aggression, no matter the cost. The war is bringing death and destruction to Ukraine, but it is also changing power structures in Europe. Poland and the Baltic states are gaining influence in the EU and NATO, many Eastern Europeans are taking responsibility and display leadership, while Western Europe appears hesitant. We ask: War in Ukraine: Is Eastern Europe leading the continents response?
