НАТО и ЕС придают важнейшее значение военной мобильности в качестве ключевой области сотрудничества

НАТО и Европейский союз определили военную мобильность как ключевую область сотрудничества между ними. Совместная декларация, подписанная в июле 2018 года генеральным секретарем НАТО Йенсом Столтенбергом и президентами Европейской комиссии и Совета Жан-Клодом Юнкером и Дональдом Туском, подтвердила взаимосвязанные интересы в безопасности союзников по НАТО и государств-членов ЕС и важность сотрудничества для поддержания инициатив в области обороны обеих организаций.

"Военная мобильность важна для позиции НАТО по сдерживанию и обороне, и в настоящее время является ключевым направлением сотрудничества с Европейским союзом. Быстрое перемещение союзных войск в Европу и по всей Европе и их снабжение является важной логистической задачей, связанной с привлечением многих заинтересованных сторон на национальном и многонациональном уровне, что будет отработано в ходе учений Trident Juncture 18 в октябре и ноябре", - пишет Питер Уильямс в последнем выпуске «Обзор НАТО».

"Украинский кризис 2014 года усилил опасения союзников в отношении возрождающейся и настойчивой России. Он подчеркнул необходимость быстрого и уверенного усиления союзников на периферии границ НАТО, чтобы сдержать потенциальную угрозу и, если сдерживание потерпит неудачу, защитить союзника от нападения. Кроме того, конфликт в Сирии и рост терроризма, кибератаки и другие формы гибридной войны против союзников подчеркивают потенциал конфликта во всем национальном и международном спектре и необходимость усиления координации для обеспечения готовности и устойчивости. Также стало ясно, что Альянс должен быть в состоянии сделать все это: от коллективной обороны, от кризисного управления, до прогнозирования стабильности за пределами наших границ, для содействия борьбе с терроризмом. Таким образом, времена изменились, а риски и бремя увеличилось», - пишет он.

Borrell tells the European Parliament that the situation in Afghanistan was critical, but the EU will remain engaged

Borrell underlined that the European Union will make every effort to support the peace process and to remain a committed partner to the Afghan people. "Of course, we will have to take into account the evolving situation, but disengagement is not an option.  We are clear on that: there is no alternative to a negotiated political settlement, through inclusive peace talks.

Campaign "Landmine Free South Caucasus 2025" launched

Campaign "Landmine Free South Caucasus 2025" launched

LINKS Europe is pleased to announce the launch of the campaign Landmine Free South Caucasus 2025. This will be the fourth Landmine Free South Caucasus campaign that LINKS Europe is co-ordinating since 2019, and like previous editions, the campaign will be regional, involving Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia, and will have five official languages: Armenian, Azerbaijani, Georgian, Russian and English. LINKS Europe will work with stakeholders in the three countries in the delivery of the campaign. The campaign will run from 1 September to 15 December. The first part, from 1 September to 15 November, will be largely informative, using media and social media, whilst engaging with decision makers and civil society in the three countries. In the second part of the campaign, from 15 November to 15 December, the focus this year will be on the human and economic costs of landmine contamination. The Campaign will again mark 30 November as the Day of Solidarity with the victims of landmines and other remnants of war in the South Caucasus. A spokesperson for LINKS Europe said this year the campaign takes special significance following the progress in the Armenia-Azerbaijan Peace Process and the historic meeting between the Armenian and Azerbaijani leaders, together with the US president in the White House on 8 August. For six years, between 2018-2024, LINKS Europe worked on landmine issues in a very difficult political context, but always insisted that a regional approach was necessary for successful mine action in the South Caucasus. It consistently held that mine action could serve as a confidence-building measure in the region. Landmine Free South Caucasus 2025 will again push these ideas, but the context has changed, and the chance of success is now higher.
