Summary / Abstract (Note) | Although ESDP has made considerable progress in the past ten years, it will soon have to make choices on its final aims: either to make the European Union a subcontractor of international security or to become the major instrument of the EU's strategic interests in the world. In any case, EU states should preserve ESDP's specific nature among other EU policies if they want to secure its future, as it would lose its value if diluted in institutional machinery incompatible with the moral and operational requirements of military engagement. |
