A doable agenda for the European Defence Council 2013. Three proposals

In this article from 2013, Hilmar Linnenkamp and Christian Mölling discuss the December European Defense Council 2013. Linnenkamp and Mölling are not convinced by the effectiveness of the council, instead arguing that to make the Council a success, member states should opt for a sober assessment of the current situation through a European defense review as a basis for future decision making, increase their capacity to act jointly on defense matters by bolstering the European Defence Agency, and agree on a small number of bold and realistic flagship projects.
