The change in security protection systems is imminent, but collective defense is a necessity, as Eurobarometer surveys show. What is the way forward to achieve European defense ambitions - probably not starting from a "white sheet" to build an entirely new system, but increasing efforts towards greater capabilities, i.e. focusing them rather than displacing them. It is not justified, in a war on the continent, to create an additional risk of duplication and competition of collective defense systems, i.e. to distort the sought synergy effect and instead of strengthening the security architecture in Europe to achieve a weakening of defense. Europe's security should not be built on duplication of capabilities, but on growth of capabilities.
European army, risk; duplication of capabilities.
