I will in the coming days and weeks submit a number of comments to the proposed elements for a regional strategy on Syria, Iraq and ISIS/DAESH put forward by the High Representative Mogherini and the European Commission in a communication dated 5 February 2015.
This is one of the first examples of what the new leadership would see as a comprehensive approach to external conflicts and crises. Three questions arise: does it cover the scope of the current international debate? And secondly, from an EU perspective: does it cover the relevant policy perspectives in EU security policy outlined in the handbook on EU and security which I will publish shortly, based upon many interviews inside the institutions. Third: The EU tried once before in 2013 to put forward a communication on Syria labelled as a comprehensive approach to the crisis. To what extent does the new communication represent progress in terms of comprehensiveness? (Photo:AP) |
