Summary/Abstract: In terms of security, several major trends will define the strategic landscape around European Union values. Russia promotes an aggressive reaffirmation strategy at all levels. The Islamic State planted terror in the Middle East, with effects all around the world. Migration as well as debt crisis sparked controversy in the European Union. The issues of energy resources and climate change are again on the political security agenda. All these aspects are only some of the new challenges to the European Union security. The new EU global strategy should adapt to the new security environment, to its unpredictable evolution, and should address the new threats boldly. In order for Europe to progress in peace, stability and prosperity, these new challenges should be addressed collectively.
