In the course of the development of EU’s Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP), Germany has embraced a leadership role, being no longer a reluctant power. Under the ongoing “responsibility discourse”, Germany has expressed its willingness to assume greater international responsibilities and be more engaged in matters of peace and security in Europe and beyond. With Brexit looming large, expectations about German performance in the field of CSDP are further rising. Given its strict adherence to multilateralism, however, Germany is forced to rely on partnerships and shape coalitions. In our paper, we explore the cooperation between Germany and the Visegrad countries within CSDP and analyse the role of Brexit as an intervening variable within this relationship. Based on the analyses of main convergences and divergences in their approaches towards CSDP and on the assessment of the implications of Brexit for the security in Central Europe, the paper assesses the potential for increased cooperation between Germany and Visegrad countries in the field of CSDP.
