The Alliance commitment to reinforcing its European pillar is based on the development of an effective European Security and Defence Identity which could respond to European requirements and at the same time contribute to Alliance security.

L'engagement de l'Alliance à consolider son pilier européen repose sur le développement d'une IESD [Identité européenne de sécurité et de défense] effective, qui pourrait répondre aux besoins européens et contribuer en même temps à la sécurité de l'Alliance. En assumant une plus grande part de responsabilité en ce qui concerne leur propre sécurité, les pays membres européens cherchent à créer une relation transatlantique plus forte et plus équilibrée, renforçant par là l'Alliance dans son ensemble. 3, record 1, French, - Identit%C3%A9%20europ%C3%A9enne%20de%20s%C3%A9curit%C3%A9%20et%20de%20d%C3%A9fense
