| Summary / Abstract (Note) | There is no doubt that publication of a new EU foreign policy and security strategy was long overdue. Thirteen years have passed since the publication of the EU Security Strategy, which was adopted by the EU of 15 member states. Since then the EU has grown in size, its membership has almost doubled; its geostrategic centre has shifted towards the centre of the continent and the EU’s External Action Service has been established. It also goes without saying that we are in a manifestly different political reality in the EU and in the world today than we were 13 years ago. It is naturally far from ideal that the European Global Strategy was published a day after the British voters opted in favour of leaving the EU, but no timing is ever ideal and I have no doubt that, whilst the exact format remains to be determined, the UK will remain involved in EU security and foreign policy. |
