European Union Defense Agency

The European Union Defense Agency (EDA) is an organization that supports EU member countries in coordinating and improving their military capabilities. It facilitates collaboration on defense research, technology, and logistics to enhance security and interoperability among member states. The agency aims to promote a more effective, efficient, and unified defense posture within the EU, especially in areas like joint projects and crisis management. It does not control national armies but acts as a facilitator for cooperation, ensuring that member countries can work together more effectively to address common security challenges.
