Series

The European Union Institute for Security Studies (EUISS) is an autonomous EU agency that is designed to 1) foster a common security culture within the Union, 2) support the elaboration and projection of EU foreign policy, and 3) enrich strategic debates in and out of Europe. Raising awareness of both existing and emerging foreign and security policy challenges facing the European Union, the EUISS ISSUE Briefs provide key information in a concise, focused format.
