European Union Policy on Security and Defense

The twenty first century will be remembered in the history of mankind as the century of change, constant danger, clash of civilisations , collective insecurity, mistrust towards the other , injustices caused by the Iraq war and by the terrorist attacks of September 11th 2001, in the United States, March 11th 2004, in Spain, and July 7th 2005, in London, respectively. We should not, however, neglect all the other terrorist attacks to the most elementary human rights perpetrated every day around the world. Indeed, the insecurity epidemic proliferates around the globe. Therefore, it is urgent that European Union (EU) adopt a good and effective Policy on Security and Defense.
