Such an approach is the more justified since the Belgian Presidency launched the idea of drawing up a kind of white paper on security and defence, a suggestion largely supported at the informal defence ministers meetings, although there are still questions as to what title this paper should have and, more importantly, what the purpose of such an undertaking should be.
Certains pays semblent avoir des objectifs plus ambitieux et vouloir doter l’Union européenne d’un véritable concept de sécurité et de défense, en vue notamment de recueillir l’adhésion d’un public plus large.
