Report: EU to draw up own military strategy
By EUobserver
EU states plan to draw up a common military strategy, called a "Strategic Compass", on the model of Nato, according to officials and diplomats, Reuters reports. "This is a common way of looking at the world, of defining threats and addressing them together," an EU official said. The EU wanted "strategic autonomy", but that did not mean less cooperation with the US, EU foreign affairs chief Josep Borrell said Thursday.
