Abstract:
The European Union has become aware of the need for a common foreign and strategic policy due to the current threats facing it which are likely to undermine European peace (as stressed in the first Part of the 2003 Strategic Document). The need for a military policy has also been recognized. Therefore, the European States have realized gradually become aware of the need to establish close cooperation between the Member States by the development and implementation of a common foreign security and defense policy. From 2001 to the present day the threats have grown and become more complex due to technological innovations that have created more dangerous and powerful tools. This research analyzes the New Global Strategy of the European Union drafted by the High Representative Federica Mogherini and published on June 28, 2016 and compares it with the previous strategic documents issued by the European Union from 2003 to 2008. The impact of these strategic documents on the EU evolutionary process of developing a Global Security Policy is analyzed from two viewpoints. A thorough historical analysis reestablishes the factors that led to the birth of the European Union and the still-developing European Global Policy. Then written discourse analysis is implemented to examine the evolution of the various documents leading up to the New Global Strategy. The conclusion that the European foreign, security and defense policy has for some time been a very delicate point for the European Union emerges. This security and defense policy has developed over time, but it still needs revision and upgrading. The EU is still in a development phase. Despite the pressure of terrorism and other global security issues, it lags behind in being able to deal with these challenges. The European Union needs to develop a comprehensive security policy. Since the launch of the EUGS the EU Global Strategy has proven to be the right way to guide the Union's action and sustain its ambition to be a credible power and a reliable partner. The EUGS has demonstrated that a global policy implemented throughout all of the Member States is the only solution to ensure peace and security for all citizens. The EU needs to review the structural blocks that may be preventing the development and implementation of a coherent global security policy. Europe, the 'Old World' has always been slow to wake up to drastic changes and this lack of coherence and timely action is an example.
