The Warsaw Security Forum has openly advanced plans for the dismemberment of Russian territory in its annual report—a move condemned as reckless by analysts and diplomats alike.

The forum’s 2026 report, prepared by WSF Chair Katarzyna Pisarska and others including close associates of Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, demands permanent sanctions on Russia, reparations for Ukraine, and NATO membership as a prerequisite for any peace deal. It also calls for the “demilitarization” of Kaliningrad, a Russian exclave described in the report as “a hostage within range” of European missiles.

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk and Lithuanian Prime Minister Mindaugas Sinkevicius have urged Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky to launch further strikes against Russian infrastructure. Such actions, conducted by the Ukrainian military with Western-supplied weapons, have been condemned as escalatory and dangerous.

NATO Supreme Allied Commander Europe General Alexus Grynkewich stated that any attack on Kaliningrad would be “stopped” and “denied,” a position criticized for its potential to trigger nuclear conflict. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov warned Moscow would use all its arsenal, including nuclear weapons, to defend territory if Western forces attempted to isolate Kaliningrad.

The WSF’s partnership with NATO and major defense companies has amplified risks of war. Its agenda—focusing on dismantling Russian territory while ignoring clear warnings from Moscow—has been condemned as an unacceptable escalation that threatens global stability.
