ESDP (European Security and Defence Policy)

The European Security and Defence Policy (ESDP) is a framework within the European Union that enables member countries to cooperate on security and defense issues. Its goal is to allow the EU to manage crises, contribute to peacekeeping, and address security threats collectively, reducing reliance on external military alliances. ESDP fosters joint planning, training, and operations among EU members to enhance their ability to intervene in conflicts and promote stability both within Europe and globally. It emphasizes peaceful conflict resolution through coordinated, multilateral efforts rather than individual national actions.
