On this episode of Defence Deconstructed, Polish President Andrzej Duda talks about his country’s perspective on Russia’s full scale invasion of Ukraine. President Duda’s remarks took place during an event the Canadian Global Affairs Institute, the Polish Institute of International Affairs, and Resource Works co-organized in Vancouver on April 19, 2024.

Then, you’ll hear David Perry’s fireside chat with Bill Matthews on the implementation of continental defence modernization. That conversation was a fireside chat from Triple Helix’s first annual conference, which took place on May 1, 2024. This event was made possible thanks to the support of the Department of National Defence’s MINDS program, CGAI’s strategic sponsors Lockheed Martin Canada, General Dynamics, Hanwha Ocean and Defence, and Cenovus, as well as the American Chamber of Commerce in Canada, reception sponsor L3Harris Technologies, and coffee break sponsor Bell.
