There is a growing momentum within the U.S. legislative landscape to counter the risks associated with investments in Chinese companies - and Europe would be wise to pay attention to this. PSSI’s Elias Sköld highlights the growing concerns about U.S. investors funding Chinese state-controlled companies, including those supplying the Chinese military and committing egregious human rights abuses.

In an interview with Fox Business's anchor Maria Bartiromo, PSSI’s Chairman Roger W. Robinson Jr. discussed Biden narrowly limiting U.S. investments in Chinese tech and the impact of China on U.S. companies.

PSSI’s Regional Security Program Project Coordinator, Dr. Markéta Slavková, gave an expert interview for the Bosnian TV channel Federalna TV as part of the report from Prague on Bosnia's EU integration process titled: The European Integration of BiH on the Example of Czechia - Similarities, Difference, and Key Challenges. 

PSSI’s Managing Director, Dr. Jana Robinson, took part in what many called a “historic” NATO Summit in Vilnius on July 11-12, 2023. 

The Prague Security Studies Institute (PSSI), under the auspices of The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic and with the financial support of the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), organized on June 22, 2023 at the Czernin Palace, the headquarters of the Czech Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a conference titled "WESTERN BALKANS AT THE CROSSROADS: Democratic Backsliding and External Actors' Influence".

Over the past decade, Bosnia and Herzegovina has been facing a major crisis stemming from growing internal political divisions. The steady weakening of the EU presence in the Balkans in recent years has made BiH even more vulnerable to the influences of the two main regional power centers – Belgrade and Zagreb – as well as other geopolitical actors, especially the USA, Russia, Türkiye, and China, as well as Iran and the Arab States of the Persian Gulf.

The Czech Republic’s disinformation scene consisted mainly of alternative online outlets spreading disinformation and conspiracies in the past, roughly until the Covid-19 pandemic. They were mostly non-transparent, by default hiding and obfuscating their ownership structure, contributors, and financing. However, this scene has diversified significantly in recent years due to the pandemic, the war in Ukraine and domestic political and economic developments. It now also consists of civil movements of "freedom fighters," influencers, celebrities, far-right/left politicians and individuals who began to engage in the disinformation discourse for their personal interest, for example to cover their debts or enter politics. 

Albania has found itself in the middle of the political “chessboard” created by the most influential external actors after the EU and the USA, namely, Russia, China, Türkiye, and the Arab states of the Persian Gulf. The study explores Albania’s multifaceted attitudes within the context of the dynamics in the Western Balkans and sheds light on how the Open Balkan (OB) initiative has shaped relations among the Western Balkan countries.
