Abstract
Este artículo tiene por objeto analizar la Política Común de Seguridad y de Defensa (PCSD) de la Unión Europea (UE) como parte integral de la Política Exterior y de Seguridad Común (PESC) desde la perspectiva del Parlamento Europeo (PE), institución de la UE que viene desempeñando un papel de supervisión y vigilancia en este ámbito competencial eminentemente intergubernamental, de acuerdo con el Tratado de Lisboa. La seguridad, que según los últimos eurobarómetros es una cuestión que preocupa a los ciudadanos de la UE, es una política transversal que en las sociedades democráticas requiere del apoyo y del compromiso de la opinión pública. Cada vez más voces abogan por requerir -en asuntos específicos- de una mayoría cualificada en el proceso de la toma de decisiones. Sin embargo, ¿hasta qué punto esa preocupación se fundamenta en un conocimiento del estado de la situación en el mundo y de las amenazas a las que se enfrenta la UE en los próximos años? y, ¿hasta qué punto está Europa preparada para responder a dichas amenazas de manera autónoma, ágil, coordinada y contundente a la vez que respeta los principios y valores que la han guiado hasta ahora? Analizar los avances que se han realizado en la Unión Europea persiguiendo este objetivo, profundizar en los desafíos a los que se enfrenta la PESC para contribuir a él, y dilucidar cuál es y debe ser el papel del PE para alcanzarlo serán los retos que afrontaremos a los largo de las estas líneas.
This article aims to analyze the Common Security and Defense Policy (CSDP) as an integral part of the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) of the European Union (EU) from the perspective of the European Parliament (EP), an institution of the EU that it has been playing a role of supervision and surveillance in this area of eminently intergovernmental competence, in accordance with the Lisbon Treaty. Security, which according to the latest Eurobarometers is an issue that worries EU citizens, is a cross-cutting policy in democratic societies that requires the support and commitment of public opinion. More and more voices advocate requiring - in specific matters - a qualified majority in the decision-making process. However, to what extent is this concern based on an understanding of the state of the world situation and the threats the EU faces in the coming years? And to what extent is Europe prepared to respond to these threats in an autonomous, agile, coordinated and at the same time forceful manner while respecting the principles and values that have guided it up to now? Analyze the progress that has been made in the European Union in pursuit of this objective, delve into the challenges facing the CFSP in order to contribute to it, and elucidate what the role of the EP is and should be to achieve it will be the challenges we will face them along these lines.
