(3) Supporting security sector actors, including the military under exceptional circumstances, in third countries in a conflict prevention, crisis management or stabilisation context is essential to ensure appropriate conditions for poverty eradication and development, including good governance for an effective use of development cooperation, whose main goal is poverty eradication. Those actions are particularly necessary to ensure the protection of civilian populations in the areas affected by conflict, crises or fragility.
