The Committee on Foreign Affairs adopted the own\ninitiative report by Arnaud DANJEAN (EPP, FR) on the implementation\nof the Common Security and Defence Policy (based on the Annual\nReport from the Council to the European Parliament on the Common\nForeign and Security Policy).
\nA new strategic framework: the parliamentary committee stresses that the EU\nshould be a global political player on the international\nscene in order to promote international peace and security and that\nit should be able to assume its responsibilities when confronted\nwith international threats, crises and conflicts, especially in its\nneighbourhood. It emphasises, in this connection, the need for the\nEU to assert its strategic autonomy through a strong and\neffective foreign, security and defence policy enabling it to act\nalone, if necessary. It recalls that this strategic autonomy is\nbeing built with due respect for existing alliances, notably\nwith regard to NATO, while maintaining a strong transatlantic link\nand duly observing and reinforcing genuine multilateralism\nas a guiding principle of EU international crisis management\noperations.
\nConcerned about the prospect of the strategic decline\nfacing the EU, Members point out that the European Security\nStrategy, which was drawn up in 2003 and reviewed in 2008, is\nbeginning to be overtaken by events and is no longer sufficient to\nunderstand todays\nworld. They therefore call, once more, on the European Council to\ncommission from the Vice-President/High Representative (VP/HR) a\nWhite Paper on the security and defence of the EU, which will\ndefine the EUs\nstrategic interests. The White Paper should be based both on the\nconcepts introduced by the 2003 and 2008 European Security\nStrategies and on the new security concepts that have emerged in\nrecent years, such as the responsibility to protect,\nhuman security and effective multilateralism.
\nMembers recall that the Lisbon Treaty introduced a\nnumber of significant innovations in relation to the CSDP that have\nyet to be implemented. They consider regrettable, in this\nconnection, the neglect by the VP/HR of past parliamentary\nresolutions calling for more active and coherent advances in the\nimplementation of the new instruments introduced under the Lisbon\nTreaty. They urge the VP/HR to provide the necessary impetus to\ndevelop the potential of the Lisbon Treaty so that the EU\nenjoys the full range of possibilities for action on the\ninternational scene within the framework of its comprehensive\napproach.
\nCivilian and military operations: the report emphasises that so far the CSDP has\ncontributed to crisis management, peacekeeping and the\nstrengthening of international security. It insists that the\nCSDP now needs to be able to intervene in all types of\ncrisis, including in the context of high-intensity conflicts in\nits own neighbourhood, and to be ambitious enough to have a real\nimpact on the ground.
\nThe committee responsible notes that 14 operations are\ncurrently under way, 11 of which are civilian and 3 military. It\nwelcomes the launch of three new civilian operations in the summer\nof 2012, in the Horn of Africa (EUCAP Nestor), Niger (EUCAP Sahel\nNiger) and South Sudan (EUAVSEC South Sudan), and the planning of a\ncivilian mission to support border controls in Libya. It considers\nthat these missions are a first sign that the CSDPs agenda is being revitalised and underlines the\nimportance of improving the framework for learning lessons from\nmissions and operations.
\nMembers consider it regrettable, however, that the\nEU does not take full advantage of CSDP military tools, even\nthough a number of crises might have warranted a CSDP intervention,\nincluding those in Libya and Mali. They stress the need to consider\nproviding assistance in the field of security sector reform to the\nArab Spring countries, especially those in North Africa and the\nSahel region. They encourage, in this context, the intensification\nof ongoing planning for possible military operations and, at the\nsame time, calls for a re-evaluation of ongoing\nmissions.
\nCapabilities and structures for conducting\noperations: the report notes that EU\nmilitary operations still suffer all too often from problems of\nforce generation, and that the credibility of the CSDP is at\nstake in the absence of credible capabilities. It calls,\ntherefore, on the Member States to remain mobilised to provide\nquality personnel and equipment.
\nIt notes, furthermore, that the crisis management\nstructures within the EEAS remain under-staffed, on both the\ncivilian and the military sides, which affects their ability to\nrespond and contributes to a degree of marginalisation of the CSDP.\nIt calls on the VP/HR to address this situation as soon as\npossible.
\nAmong other recommendations, the parliamentary\ncommittee:
\nThe report reiterates its call for the creation of\nan EU Operational Headquarters (OHQ) for operational planning\nand the conduct of civilian missions and military operations within\nthe EEAS, if necessary through permanent structured\ncooperation.

It insists that the\nCSDP now needs to be able to intervene in all types of\ncrisis, including in the context of high-intensity conflicts in\nits own neighbourhood, and to be ambitious enough to have a real\nimpact on the ground.
\nThe committee responsible notes that 14 operations are\ncurrently under way, 11 of which are civilian and 3 military. It\nwelcomes the launch of three new civilian operations in the summer\nof 2012, in the Horn of Africa (EUCAP Nestor), Niger (EUCAP Sahel\nNiger) and South Sudan (EUAVSEC South Sudan), and the planning of a\ncivilian mission to support border controls in Libya. It considers\nthat these missions are a first sign that the CSDPs agenda is being revitalised and underlines the\nimportance of improving the framework for learning lessons from\nmissions and operations.
\nMembers consider it regrettable, however, that the\nEU does not take full advantage of CSDP military tools, even\nthough a number of crises might have warranted a CSDP intervention,\nincluding those in Libya and Mali. They stress the need to consider\nproviding assistance in the field of security sector reform to the\nArab Spring countries, especially those in North Africa and the\nSahel region. They encourage, in this context, the intensification\nof ongoing planning for possible military operations and, at the\nsame time, calls for a re-evaluation of ongoing\nmissions.
\nCapabilities and structures for conducting\noperations: the report notes that EU\nmilitary operations still suffer all too often from problems of\nforce generation, and that the credibility of the CSDP is at\nstake in the absence of credible capabilities. It calls,\ntherefore, on the Member States to remain mobilised to provide\nquality personnel and equipment.
\nIt notes, furthermore, that the crisis management\nstructures within the EEAS remain under-staffed, on both the\ncivilian and the military sides, which affects their ability to\nrespond and contributes to a degree of marginalisation of the CSDP.\nIt calls on the VP/HR to address this situation as soon as\npossible.
\nAmong other recommendations, the parliamentary\ncommittee:
\nThe report reiterates its call for the creation of\nan EU Operational Headquarters (OHQ) for operational planning\nand the conduct of civilian missions and military operations within\nthe EEAS, if necessary through permanent structured\ncooperation.
\nThe Committee on Foreign Affairs adopted the own\ninitiative report by Arnaud DANJEAN (EPP, FR) on the implementation\nof the Common Security and Defence Policy (based on the Annual\nReport from the Council to the European Parliament on the Common\nForeign and Security Policy).
\nA new strategic framework: the parliamentary committee stresses that the EU\nshould be a global political player on the international\nscene in order to promote international peace and security and that\nit should be able to assume its responsibilities when confronted\nwith international threats, crises and conflicts, especially in its\nneighbourhood. It emphasises, in this connection, the need for the\nEU to assert its strategic autonomy through a strong and\neffective foreign, security and defence policy enabling it to act\nalone, if necessary. It recalls that this strategic autonomy is\nbeing built with due respect for existing alliances, notably\nwith regard to NATO, while maintaining a strong transatlantic link\nand duly observing and reinforcing genuine multilateralism\nas a guiding principle of EU international crisis management\noperations.
\nConcerned about the prospect of the strategic decline\nfacing the EU, Members point out that the European Security\nStrategy, which was drawn up in 2003 and reviewed in 2008, is\nbeginning to be overtaken by events and is no longer sufficient to\nunderstand todays\nworld. They therefore call, once more, on the European Council to\ncommission from the Vice-President/High Representative (VP/HR) a\nWhite Paper on the security and defence of the EU, which will\ndefine the EUs\nstrategic interests. The White Paper should be based both on the\nconcepts introduced by the 2003 and 2008 European Security\nStrategies and on the new security concepts that have emerged in\nrecent years, such as the responsibility to protect,\nhuman security and effective multilateralism.
\nMembers recall that the Lisbon Treaty introduced a\nnumber of significant innovations in relation to the CSDP that have\nyet to be implemented. They consider regrettable, in this\nconnection, the neglect by the VP/HR of past parliamentary\nresolutions calling for more active and coherent advances in the\nimplementation of the new instruments introduced under the Lisbon\nTreaty. They urge the VP/HR to provide the necessary impetus to\ndevelop the potential of the Lisbon Treaty so that the EU\nenjoys the full range of possibilities for action on the\ninternational scene within the framework of its comprehensive\napproach.

\nA space policy to underpin the CSDP: lastly, Parliament emphasises that, if the EU is to\nenjoy decision-making and operational autonomy, it must have\nadequate satellite resources in the fields of space imagery,\nintelligence-gathering, communications and space surveillance. It\ncalls on the Council and the Commission to explore the possibility\nof an EU financial contribution to fund future space imaging\nsatellite programmes so as to allow the Union's political-military\nbodies and the EEAS to task satellites and obtain, upon\nrequest and according to their own needs, satellite images of\nregions in crisis or regions in which a CSDP mission is to be\ndeployed.
