  • First Online:
Managing Security Threats along the EU’s Eastern Flanks

Part of the book series: New Security Challenges ((NSECH))

Abstract

Written by experienced practitioner with EU responsibilities towards the OSCE and, therefore across the range of countries and security issues at the core of the volume, but from a private perspective, this chapter outlines and analyses EU policies. These include EU support for economic development as its stabilisation policy, conflict mediation in the OSCE area, and responses to security challenges, especially as outlined in the Global Strategy for the European Union’s Foreign and Security Policy.

The views expressed here are solely those of the author in her private capacity and do not in any way represent the views or position of the European Union.
