Angleška kratica izhaja iz Permanent Structured Cooperation, kar pomeni Stalno strukturno sodelovanje. Pesco naj bi poglobil obrambno sodelovanje med državami članicami Evropske unije (EU), in sicer pri razvijanju skupnih obrambnih zmogljivostih, skupnih projektih in operativni pripravljenosti ter prispevanju oboroženih sil. EU je v zgodnjih začetkih največ pozornosti namenjala ekonomskemu napredku držav članic, kar je bil v desetletju po koncu druge svetovne vojne zelo logičen cilj. Varnost in obramba sta se pozneje pojavljala v zametkih v obliki Zahodnoevropske unije, skupne zunanje in varnostne politike itn. Do začetka vojne v nekdanji Jugoslaviji EU ni imela resnih razlogov, da bi se področju varnosti temeljito posvetila. Varnostna politika je bila ena izmed politik, ki so bile prisotne predvsem »na papirju« in v različnih razpravah, kar je prišlo najbolj do izraza prav pri vrenju v tako imenovanem balkanskem kotlu. To je bil dober preizkus delovanja EU in prav tu se je pokazalo, da bo treba nekaj temeljito spremeniti. Eden od rezultatov je bilo tudi večje angažiranje v mednarodnih operacijah in na misijah. Opazovalna misija je bila napotena v Gruzijo, policijska in pravosodna na Kosovo, za pomoč pri posledicah cunamija v Indonezijo, za boj proti piratom v Somalijo in za zaščito beguncev v Mali. Drugi prelomni preizkus delovanja EU na področju varnosti in obrambe je bila evropska migrantska kriza leta 2015, pri čemer je prišlo najbolj do izraza pomanjkanje ustreznih politik na ravni EU. Šlo je za kontradiktornost politik, ki veljajo znotraj EU za države članice in njihove prebivalce ter za vse druge države in njihove prebivalce, za katere visoke vrednote, etične norme in socialne ugodnosti prenehajo veljati, kadar gre za izjemno veliko število prišlekov. Preden so se pomembni organi EU sestali, posvetovali, odločili in ukrepali, so se problemi na različnih področjih namnožili, eden izmed ključnih pa je bil varnostni problem.

  • Defence White Paper of the Republic of Slovenia
    DEFENCE WHITE PAPER OF THE REPUBLIC OF SLOVENIA 2020 Dear Readers, Both in everyday life, and in the operation and development of a country, we occasio- nally need to stop and strategically assess our efforts to see whether they are leading towards the desired objective. The result of our strategic reflection is the Defence White Paper of the Republic of Slovenia, which represents a high level of consistency of views within the defence sector on the future security environment, and on the necessary measures to enhance the country's defence capacity, taking into account real human, economic and other capabilities. The purpose of the Defence White Paper is to define a gradual long-term development of the Republic of Slovenia’s defence system in order to ensure the necessary levels of capacity and preparedness for the implementation of national defence, and the fulfilment of the adopted international obligations. I believe that, through diligent work and analysis, we have acquired a good basis for directing the further development of the defence system, which will be able to function effectively and in accordance with its mission. This document provides guidance for the change, reform and strengthening of both military and non-military defence mechanisms to meet the contemporary security challenges. It provides the starting point for the preparation of planning documents which will specify the key defence objectives by 2035, and the way they are implemented. The security of the country and its citizens is not self-evident and should not be taken for granted. It is a benefit and a value that is directly related to the existence of a nation, a government, a democratic system, the sovereignty of a state, the protection of one's identity, the exercise of human rights, and other interests of nations and states.

  • National Reserve Forces Status
    NATIONAL RESERVE FORCES STATUS COUNTRY: HUNGARY. GENERAL INFO On the basis general military service obligation all males of Hungarian citizenship living in Hungary are obliged to conduct military service. This service obligation starts at the age of 17 and terminates at the age of 50. Those individuals are considered to be members of the reserve force who have previously conducted military service, been prepared for some position, that is they are trained for military professions. Most of the 100.000 strength military personnel of the Hungarian Defence Forces – close to 60 % - are reservists. BASIC ORGANIZATION PRINCIPLES The obligation for reservist military service expires at the upper age limit of the service obligation, but in peacetime – for training purposes – the upper age limit of drafting for privates is age of 30, for commanders age of 35. The maximum duration of reservist military services can be up to 90 days, which can be conducted in several parts of maximum 30 days each by the law. In the past decades the preparation of reserve personnel – mainly due to economic reasons – did not meet the requirements, only 5-10 % (1-2.000 reservists) of the necessary personnel were drafted. TRAINING In harmony with the transition to a volunteer force the volunteer reservist system was introduced in 2002. The volunteer reservists are annually called-up and trained in line with the provisions of their contract. The volunteering reservists may assume positions that are separate lines of the organization table. The major augmenting resources are the ex-servicemen, thus in their case only regular retraining is required.

  • Blue Helmet Forum Austria 2006
    Discussion Group A: Multinational Training and Force Integration Introductory Presentation: The Effects of Peacekeeping on the Hungarian Armed Forces Lieutenant General Dr. Zoltán SZENES (ret)1, CSc., Former Chief of Staff, Hungarian Defence Forces As is the case in Austria, the concept of "peacekeeping" has redrawn the elements of security and defence policy in Hungary, including the transformation of training and everyday operations within the Hungarian Defence Forces. Throughout the last decade the Hungarian armed forces have taken gigantic steps in transforming a basically static, nation-defence oriented force into a mission oriented military. From 1995 onwards, political conceptions concerning the employment of the armed forces, the challenges of alliance membership (NATO, EU), and the missions and tasks of the armed forces have all undergone changes in a fundamental fashion. The intention of this paper is to review how the political imperatives of participation in peacekeeping operations, has transformed both the Hungarian armed forces and the concepts relating to their employment. Today, the all- volunteer Hungarian Defence Forces are primarily peacekeeping oriented, and this, by definition requires an orientation toward deployability. 1 Lt. Gen (ret) Dr. Zoltán Szenes CSc is the former Chief of Defense, Hungary (2003-2005), Senior Research Fellow in the Department of International and Security Studies, Zrínyi Miklós National Defense University, Budapest. 139 Historical overview Hungarian participation in peacekeeping operations has historical antecedents stretching back to the end of the 19th century. As members of the Austro-Hungarian armed forces, Hungarian solders tried to prevent the escalation of military conflicts in several geographical areas. In 1897, for example, they participated in peacekeeping operations on the island of Crete; in 1901 they participated in normalizing the situation after the Boxer Rebellion in China; from 1902 to 1907 they kept the peace in Kosovo; and between 1902 and 1914, they were doing the same in Albania.

  • Building Hybrid Warfare and Cybersecurity Capabilities in the Hungarian Defense Forces
    Connections: The Quarterly Journal ISSN 1812-1098, e-ISSN 1812-2973 Andras Hugyik, Connections QJ 19, no. 4 (2020): 25-38 https://doi.org/10.11610/Connections.19.4.02 Research Article Best Practices in the Application of the Concept of Resilience: Building Hybrid Warfare and Cybersecurity Capabilities in the Hungarian Defense Forces Andras Hugyik Abstract: In its Global Strategy for foreign and security policy, the EU ap- plies resilience as a comprehensive concept of internal and external secu- rity. In parallel, at the 2016 Summit in Warsaw, Allied leaders decided to boost NATO’s resilience to the full spectrum of threats. Each NATO mem- ber needs to be resilient to a major shock caused by a natural disaster, failure of critical infrastructure, a hybrid, or an armed attack. Hybrid war- fare, including cyberattacks, is recognized as a significant security chal- lenge. The National Security Strategy of Hungary, adopted in 2020, confirms that the primary international framework of Hungary’s security and de- fense policy is NATO and EU membership and highlights the need to en- hance the country’s resilience against hybrid attacks. This article provides an analysis of the application of the concept of resilience in the Hungarian defense sector. It introduces the development of the resilience of the Hun- garian Defense Forces against hybrid threats, including their cyber compo- nent, while generating options for the decision-makers regarding the mili- tary and information instruments of national power. The author identifies potential hybrid threats against Hungary, a possible cyberattack scenario, and lines of effort to achieve a feasible level of resilience to such threats.
