Abstract:

During his first months in office, President Emmanuel Macron has been stressing that France’s main goal is to deepen military integration within the EU by establishing an exclusive defence core. Yet, contrary to the French position, the new PESCO cooperation initiative began for 25 EU Member States. Because of that, and due to French strategic ambitions, the need to maintain a large military presence outside the country and sustained economic problems, France will now approach defence cooperation at the EU level selectively. Macron’s priority is likely to be stronger bilateral cooperation with United Kingdom and Germany.
