[Brussels, 22 September 2025] The trusted and authoritative defence policy subscription FIREPOWER today becomes a full part of Euractiv’s Pro subscriptions offering. FIREPOWER subscribers now receive in-depth defence policy news, scoops and analysis 5 days-a-week straight to their inbox at 7am, Monday to Friday, as well as access to exclusive content online and policy briefings with Euractiv’s defence reporters.

As America’s interest in backstopping Europe’s security wanes, EU defence policy and spending is under increasing scrutiny. Professionals in Brussels and beyond need a trusted source to track and decode the intricate developments of European defence policymaking and the politics driving it.  

Since June, FIREPOWER has brought an analytical, European lens to the major defence policy developments driving the agenda. As our reporting on SAFE, the EU’s €150bn defence loan scheme demonstrated, we go beyond the headlines, covering issues from every angle. From the internal struggles amongst policymakers on expanded access for Canadian and UK companies to comprehensive reporting on loans applications by country, FIREPOWER helps our subscribers navigate the complexity of EU defence policy.

Matthew Karnitschnig, Editor-in-Chief said: “European defence policy is going through its most significant transformation in a decade. FIREPOWER will be there covering it all.”

In addition to the policy news and analysis emerging from Brussels, FIREPOWER covers the key developments in Europe’s capitals. Leveraging Euractiv’s pan-European footprint of more than 60 journalists, FIREPOWER keeps our subscribers informed of the shifts that matter.

On Tuesday 23 September, Euractiv will host a high-level launch event with speakers including Andrius Kubilius, Commissioner for Defence and Space, and Robert de Groot, Vice-President of the European Investment Bank. The evening will focus on one of the most pressing issues of our time: can Europe build a sovereign defence industrial base – and what role should financial institutions play in that process.

To arm yourself with policy intelligence that gives you an advantage, take a free trial.
