A FUNCTIONAL ORDER EUROPEAN UNION STRATEGIC COMPASS FOR SECURITY AND DEFENSE -- CONSIDERATIONS.

The world is changing every day and new challenges appear everywhere. The returning of war in Europe, the growing strategic competition and the complex security threats are disrupting the global-rules based order, violates international law, the principle of the UN charter and undermine European and global security and stability. This paper intends to present the evolution of the European Union (EU) Common Security and Defense Policy (CSDP) and of the EU Security and Defense Strategy, as well as the EU structures, instruments and agencies involved in the implementation of the CSDP. In addition to this, the author will focus on the 2022 EU Strategic Compass on Defense and Security, which attempts to set the strategic vision of the Union in response to the current challenges and to enhance EU capacity to protect its citizens, values and interests and to contribute to the international peace and security.
