Bottom Line
- As 2024 began, the Visegrád 4 (Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia) was totally bereft of consensus on the most important European security challenge of the past eighty years.
- The Russian invasion of Ukraine exacerbated existing tensions and created new fissures within the group, particularly between Warsaw and Budapest.
- Absent a major change of policy by Hungary regarding the war, Visegrád 4 unity will remain in tatters for the foreseeable future.
