In the Tegenlicht Toekomstverkenners series, we go in search of traces of the future in the present with ten inspiring speakers. In this video, we do this with the Polish-Belgian writer and philosopher Alicja Gescinska. As a child, she fled with her parents from what was then communist Warsaw. From her home in Belgium, Gescinska emphasizes that the war in Ukraine is a struggle of all Europeans. If the West were to simply cede territory to Putin, this could have major consequences for the entire world.
