The Chief of Defence Staff S.K.Sinha
The Chief of Defence Staff S.K.Sinha India as a nation went through a very traumatic experience in 1962. Our faith in the impregnability of the Himalayas, the infallibility of our foreign policy and the invincibility of our Army, got shattered. I was then an Instructor at Staff College. I was assigned the task of preparing a Telephone Battle exercise for Staff College on mountain warfare, based on our experience in the Himalayas. I toured the battle zone in the North-East to study the terrain and the course of operations that had recently taken place there. This also enabled me to interact with some of the officers who had taken part in those operations. The tour of the battlefield and research at Staff College,led one to conclude that there were three main reasons for our debacle in the Himalayas. First, a total mismatch between Indian foreign and defence policies. Second, the loss of élan amongst the officer corps in the Indian Army. Third, an irrational higher defence organization in which the Defence Services were increasingly isolated from the process of decision making in defence matters. Vital issues of war and peace, concerning the nation were being dealt with in a casual manner. For instance, in September 1962, on his way to Colombo, the Prime Minister had issued a statement to the Press at Chennai, that he had ordered the Army to evict the Chinese from the Himalayas. The Army Chief then at Tezpur, wanted written orders to that effect. A Joint Secretary in the Ministry of Defence present at Tezpur gave him those orders.

Most European countries imposed harsh physical distancing measures to save lives, and an economic downturn then ensued. As the countries of Europe and North America were cau- tiously trying to open up their economies in May 2020, there were questions about the short-term and long-term impact of the coro- navirus pandemic, the most important being whether the spread of the virus would intensify after the summer. With the number of Covid-19 cases rapidly increasing in September and October and with no vaccine available yet, governments in Europe began to impose stricter regulations to slow the spread of the virus.

NATO's New Members: a Model for Ukraine? the Example of Hungary
Conflict Studies Research Centre G86 NATO’S NEW MEMBERS: A MODEL FOR UKRAINE? THE EXAMPLE OF HUNGARY James Sherr Well before their accession to NATO on 12 March 1999, Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic had turned post-Communist change to positive and ‘irreversible’ effect. For good reason, this achievement is a point of interest, not to say fascination for countries of the former USSR suffering from a more virulent strain of the Communist legacy that still burdens the Central European states of the former Warsaw Pact. The fascination is particularly strong in Ukraine, a country which borders two of NATO’s three new members, a country which enjoys a uniquely close relationship with Poland, but at the same time a country whose nine-year commitment to a ‘Euro-Atlantic course’ has done little to transform the national economy or lead the vast majority of its people out of the post-Communist wilderness. Where economics is concerned, those who believe there is a ‘Polish model’ for Ukraine to follow might be optimistic, but they are not foolish – and those who argue more modestly that Czech, Hungarian and Polish experience have more to offer Ukraine than British or Canadian experience scarcely have a case to answer. But does it follow that these countries are the best qualified to point the way forward in the sphere of national security and defence? Here it would be rash to say that substantial change occurred in the Visegrad three before NATO and the ‘accession process’ intervened with their own demands, timetables and pressures. More than three years after the Madrid summit, it would still be rash to say that these countries possessed competent, self-confident and mature defence and security elites, let alone integrated defence and security systems.

Chief of Defence Staff: A Far-reaching Decision “The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now”, - Chinese proverb A Need Unattended Though it is known that the recommendation to have an institution of the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) in the nation’s defence establishment was made in Year 2000 by the ‘Kargil Committee’, actually the need had been felt some years before that. That was the time in the early 1990’s, when the defence budget was so squeezed that the war-worthiness of the armed forces fell well below the level as mandated in the Government’s directive1.

Next steps 40 Imprint 42 CONTENT 3 The government policy statement of 23 July 2019 identified three priorities of work for the Bundeswehr. First: increase public awareness of the Bundeswehr; second: increase operational and materiel readiness; third: better combine tasks and responsibilities. Specific measures that have since been taken include: free rail travel in uniform, public pledge ceremonies, implementation of initial measures by the procurement organisation working group and the readiness initiative. Our position paper of 9 February 2021 identified the need for change beyond that – the need for thorough adjustments in the Bundeswehr, the defence administration and the Federal Ministry of Defence (FMoD). Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer As a next step, this document details the need for action and presents the proposals we have developed Federal Minister of Defence on this basis. We offer options for the prompt implementation of those proposals and develop prospects for setting the long-term course in the armed forces, the administration, with regard to procurement and in-service support, and in the Federal Ministry of Defence. The path we have now embarked on has been discussed for quite some time.
