    SIGMA Support for Improvement in Governance and Management A joint initiative of the OECD and the European Union, principally financed by the EU Classifications and Career Development in the German Foreign Service I. Framework The German Federal Government has exclusive legislative authority in foreign affairs (Art. 73 no. 1 of the German Basic Law). The Foreign Service consists of the Foreign Office (headquarters) and the foreign missions, which together constitute one unitary, federal supreme authority (oberste Bundesbehörde). The tasks and organisation, as well as the legal status of members of the Foreign Service, are set down in the Foreign Service Act (FSA) of 30 August 1990 [Federal Law Gazette I 2002, p.1842], as amended by the First Act Amending the Foreign Service Act of 20 June 2002 [Federal Law Gazette I 2002, p. 2001 (attached)]. The Foreign Office headquarters steers the work of the foreign missions, assesses their reports and analyses, and on this basis draws up foreign policy blueprints for government policy. Headquarters also co-ordinates the foreign policy activities of other ministries and the federal states (Bundesländer) to ensure a uniform approach to German foreign policy and security policy. The Foreign Office consists of 11 departments and four regional political directorates, which in turn comprise divisions focusing on specific policy areas or geographical regions. Their analyses serve to prepare decisions at management level. The directorates-general and political directorates are: - Central Services: personnel

  • Advancing Strategic Stability in the Euro-Atlantic Region 2021 and Beyond
    June 2021 STATEMENT BY THE EURO-ATLANTIC SECURITY LEADERSHIP GROUP (EASLG) Prepared for Presidents, Prime Ministers, Parliamentarians, and Publics Advancing Strategic Stability in the Euro-Atlantic Region 2021 and Beyond n one of the best accounts of the lead-up to World War I, the historian Christopher Clark details how a group of European leaders—“The Sleepwalkers”—led their nations into a conflict that none of them wanted. Gripped by nationalism and ensnared by competing interests, mutual mistrust, and Ialliances, they made a series of tragic miscalculations that resulted in 40 million casualties. One of the more sobering aspects of this period was the speed with which events transpired in the summer of 1914, following the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife, Sophie, in Sarajevo on June 28. The subsequent ultimatums, mobilizations, declarations of war, and finally, war itself unfolded in roughly one month. Leaders of that era found themselves with precious little time for considering their decisions—and the world paid a horrific price. In the Euro-Atlantic region today, leaders face risks of deployments that should cause leaders to reflect on the miscalculation, compounded by the potential for the use of adequacy of the decision time available to them to prevent nuclear weapons, where millions could be killed in minutes. or deescalate a crisis. Emerging technologies such as evasive Do we have the tools to prevent an incident from turning hypersonic missiles or robotic nuclear torpedoes could into unimaginable catastrophe? significantly compress decision-time. When combined with artificial intelligence including machine learning, humans While leaders, governments and publics are strained by may be removed from being “in” or “on” the decision- the developing and constantly changing challenge of the making loop, especially when responding to a perceived or COVID-19 pandemic, there is a growing risk of—and a real attack.

  • (I) of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations
    DISSENTING OPINION OF JUDGE ROBINSON Interpretation of the term “premises of the mission” in Article 1 (i) of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations The majority’s conflation of the receiving State’s power to object to the designation of mission premises with a requirement for the receiving State’s consent for that designation The finding that the receiving State has a power to object has no foundation in the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations The definition of the term “premises of the mission” establishes an objective criterion France’s breach of its obligations under the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations. 1. I am in disagreement with all the findings in paragraph 126 of the Judgment. The evidence before the Court establishes that the building at 42 avenue Foch acquired the status of “premises of the mission” within the meaning of Article 1 (i) of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations (hereinafter the “Vienna Convention” or the “Convention”). Therefore, the action taken by France of entering, searching, attaching, and ordering the confiscation of, the building breached its inviolability under Article 22 of the Convention as “premises of the mission”. 2. In Part I of this opinion, I address the majority’s interpretation of the Convention as allowing a receiving State unilaterally to object to, and negate, the designation by Equatorial Guinea of the building at 42 avenue Foch as “premises of the mission”. In Part II, I describe how, in my view, the Convention should be interpreted. In Part III, I examine the alleged violations of the Convention as well as remedies for the violations.
