Enhancing the Preparedness and Readiness: Towards an EU Preparedness Strategy
The geopolitical and security landscape in Europe is changing dramatically. The EU and its Member States are facing increasingly multi-dimensional, complex and cross-border threats and crises. The evolving landscape of multi-dimensional, complex and cross-border threats and crises have the potential to profoundly affect and disrupt society in the years ahead. The EU and its Member States don’t just face one clear challenge, but multiple, complex challenges. From pandemics to infodemics, from climate change to disruptive technologies. The lines between civilian and military, state and non-state, peace and war are increasingly blurred. As a result, today’s security environment is increasingly unpredictable. Strategic competition, pervasive instability and recurrent shocks define our broader security environment. Threats can come from state and non-state actors in the form of terrorist attacks, cyber attacks or hybrid warfare, which can blur the lines between conventional and unconventional forms of conflict. The nature of EU and NATO’s strategic and operational environments evolve from crisis management and response to more demanding and pervasive threats, including hybridised threats.
