Inputs to White Paper on European Defence
2024-11-26 | EU defence and securityAndrius Kubilius, MEP, Commissioner-Designate for Defence and Space
In my Mission Letter as a new Commissioner for Defence and Space I got a task, together with High Representative Kaja Kallas, during the first 100 days to prepare a “White Paper on European Defence”, which will define how EU is readying itself and Member States for the most extreme military contingencies. Preparedness is the task for everybody: for EU leadership and for national governments, for industries, experts and citizens. That is why in each meeting which I have with different people or different communities, I am asking everybody to give us their input into forthcoming White Paper.
The first input, which we got came from the very important partner – from ASD (European AeroSpace, Security and Defence industries Association), with a lot of very valuable ideas. Thanks to ASD and welcome to everybody else who is ready to follow ASD example and to send their ideas to us. We are ready to discuss them.
