Mehrere Notfälle in der strategischen Nachbarschaft der EU, hybride Sicherheitsbedrohungen, Jahre unkoordinierter Kürzungen der Verteidigungsausgaben sowie sich schnell entwickelnde globale Trends haben die Rolle der EU als sicherheitspolitischen Akteur in einer multipolaren Welt schwinden lassen. Die Gemeinsame Sicherheits- und Verteidigungspolitik muss effizienter und effektiver werden, wenn sie sich den zukünftigen Sicherheitsherausforderungen stellen und die Interessen der EU unabhängig von anderen globalen Akteuren vorantreiben soll. Was könnten die Eckpfeiler einer umfassenden zivil-militärischen Sicherheitsarchitektur in Europa sein?
