The Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) is a key component of the European Union's efforts to enhance its security and defense capabilities. CSDP missions include military and civilian operations aimed at crisis management, conflict prevention, and peacekeeping. These missions can involve deploying personnel to support stability in regions affected by conflict or disaster. CSDP missions are often conducted in collaboration with international organizations, such as the United Nations or NATO. They focus on various areas, including humanitarian assistance, border management, and rule of law, contributing to the overall security and stability of the EU and its neighboring regions.
