El conflicto plantea desaf\u00edos de seguridad de amplio alcance para la Uni\u00f3n Europea y sus estados miembros, revelando las numerosas fallas que caracterizan a los mecanismos de defensa europeos. Durante los \u00faltimos dos a\u00f1os, Francia ha dado varios pasos para posicionarse como una potencia l\u00edder en convertir a la UE en un actor m\u00e1s proactivo y resiliente. De hecho, el pa\u00eds ha implementado medidas de \u201ceconom\u00eda de guerra\u201d para fortalecer su industria de defensa. Adem\u00e1s, Francia ha optado por aumentar la financiaci\u00f3n de sus mecanismos de preparaci\u00f3n para la defensa mediante la adopci\u00f3n de la Ley de Programaci\u00f3n Militar (MPL) para 2024-2030. Estas iniciativas se consideran instrumentos cruciales para garantizar la estabilidad y la seguridad europeas. Este documento busca demostrar c\u00f3mo los esfuerzos franceses en el \u00e1mbito de la defensa y la seguridad se alinean con el objetivo principal de la Uni\u00f3n Europea de fortalecer los mecanismos y la preparaci\u00f3n de defensa europeos, como se describe en la Declaraci\u00f3n de Versalles y la Br\u00fajula Estrat\u00e9gica 2022.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>With the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, war returned to Europe threatening European and global security and stability (European Council, 2022). In fact, the ongoing conflict represents a violation of international law, and it is dangerously redesigning the world order that has been established over the last thirty years (Mankoff, 2022). Since Russia unlawfully annexed Crimea in 2014, Ukraine\u2019s right to self-defence and territorial integrity has been fully supported, both politically and militarily. Expressly, the European Union (EU) and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) have acknowledged the importance of Ukraine\u2019s independence for Euro-Atlantic stability, thus steadily providing the country with economic and military aid (NATO, 2022).<\/p>\n<p>Given the current geopolitical challenges, the EU intends to strengthen its role in security and defence in compliance with the objectives outlined in the Versailles Declaration and the 2022 Strategic Compass (European Commission, 2024). However, the conflict has unveiled limitations in the EU\u2019s defence industry and the challenges it faces in advancing production capacity and spending. The EU defence industry appears to rely excessively on external sources for critical materials and defence capabilities. In this context, in January 2024, French President Emmanuel Macron urged the European defence industry to adopt a \u201cwar economy mode, with a faster and stronger production capacity\u201d (Bauer-Babef, 2024). France\u2019s current strategic and military visions originate from its 2017 Strategic Review of Defence and National Security and 2022 National Strategic Review. Moreover, the country has demonstrated its commitment to reinforcing its military capabilities by adopting the latest Military Programming Law (MPL). With the primary purpose of enabling France to confront emerging threats and to maintain its position among the world\u2019s major powers, the MPL allocates significant resources to support new capability efforts while enhancing France\u2019s defence readiness (Machi, 2024).<\/p>\n<p>Based on these premises, this paper examines France\u2019s pivotal role in redefining European security dynamics against the backdrop of current geopolitical challenges. The first section of this work analyses the implications of the ongoing conflict and the initiatives the EU adopted in response, underlying the urgency of strengthening European collective defence mechanisms. The second section retraces the development of France\u2019s defence strategy as outlined in the country\u2019s 2022 National Strategic Review. More specifically, the section addresses President Macron\u2019s call for a \u201cwar economy mode\u201d aimed at revitalising European defence readiness through enhanced partnerships and better resource allocation at the European level. Finally, the third section is dedicated to the recently adopted MPL (2024-2030); specifically, it analyses France\u2019s support to Ukraine by assessing France\u2019s defence capabilities and budget allocation.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IF-PDFs-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5168\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/icono-PDF-1-243x300.png\" alt=\"Descargar archivo pdf\" width=\"75\" height=\"93\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/icono-PDF-1-243x300.png 243w, https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/icono-PDF-1.png 310w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 75px) 100vw, 75px\" \/><\/a><strong>Fuente:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/finabel.org\/securing-europe-frances-defence-strategy-amidst-rising-european-industry-growth-and-defence-readiness\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>https:\/\/finabel.org<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Las posturas estrat\u00e9gicas de Francia han desempe\u00f1ado un papel central en el refuerzo de los mecanismos de seguridad europeos desde febrero de 2022, cuando comenz\u00f3&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14808,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[37,28],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14807"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=14807"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14807\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14810,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14807\/revisions\/14810"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/14808"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=14807"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=14807"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fie.undef.edu.ar\/ceptm\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=14807"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
