Abstract: Exogenous shocks like the COVID-19 pandemic or the Russian conflict affected the global economy, but mostly emerging economies. Even though the critical moments have passed, the negative effects on the economy are still present in the current economic environment, characterized by high levels of uncertainty. Exogenous events, which have an uncertain likelihood of occurring, harm economies regardless of their development. In fact, a framework for unanticipated events is vital, as are steps to achieve low levels of national debt and increased authority stability. In this context, the objective of this paper is to examine the dynamic relationships between energy prices and certain macroeconomic variables, which were affected by the fact that the energy crisis triggered by the Russian-Ukrainian conflict overlapped with the accelerated transition to a green economy and the decarbonization process. The CEE countries are more vulnerable to the energy crisis, and their proximity to the front lines of military conflict can be an important fact to take into account. The research focuses on the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Romania. The empirical analysis was conducted on monthly frequency data and in order to present an effective method of modeling interactions between macroeconomic variables, the Bayesian technique was employed.
