The severe cyclonic storm Amphan had left a trail of destruction in its wake over Satkhira, Bangladesh on August 13, 2020.Suroj ali is a fisherman, prepares to catch fishes. Thousands of men and women go into the Sundarbans forest in Southern Bangladesh every day to gather honey, collect firewood, or catch fish, crabs and putting themselves at great risk for a tiger attack. Bangladesh is one of the country’s most vulnerable to the effects of climate change. The regular and severe natural hazards that Bangladesh already suffers from tropical cyclones, river erosion, flood, landslides and drought are all set to increase in intensity and frequency as a result of climate change. Sea level rise will increasingly inundate coastal land in Bangladesh and dramatic coastal and river erosion will destroy lands and homes. These and the many other adverse effects of climate change will severely impact the economy and development of the country. One of the most dramatic impacts will be the forced movement of people throughout Bangladesh as a result of losing their homes, lands, property and livelihoods to the effects of climate change. While it is impossible to predict completely accurate figures of how many people will be displaced by climate change, the best current estimates state that sea level rise alone will displace 18 million Bangladeshis within the next 40 years. The vast majority of these people will be displaced within Bangladesh not across international borders presenting the Government with enormous challenges, particularly when it comes to finding places to live and work for those displaced.

Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz watches a military honor parade at the Ministry of Defense on February 14, 2025, in Warsaw, Poland. On February 14, a high-level defense meeting takes place in Warsaw between Polish Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Defense Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz and U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. The talks focus on strengthening bilateral defense cooperation, enhancing regional security, and reinforcing deterrence measures on NATO's eastern flank. Poland remains a key U.S. ally in Europe, actively cooperating within NATO and hosting American forces on its territory. In recent years, Poland significantly expands its defense capabilities by procuring advanced U.S. military equipment. In 2024, Poland acquires 96 AH-64E Apache attack helicopters, the IBCS system for the WISLA and NAREW air defense programs, and in January 2025, signs a contract for over 200 AGM-88G AARGM-ER missiles. As one of the leading NATO members in defense spending, Poland allocates nearly 5% of its GDP to national security. The 2025 defense budget includes a record-breaking allocation of PLN 124.3 billion, rising to PLN 186.6 billion with additional military funding. These investments support Poland's long-term commitment to modernizing its armed forces and strengthening its strategic position in the region
