Summary/Abstract: The report examines security through the prism of today's reality in which security policy should take into account both civilian and military aspects of dangers and threats. The author recommends the EU to decide on its role in security and defense, as well as to whether or not it is more effective these issues to remain within the competence of NATO, given the established and worked in this organization norms, rules and procedures. Union could be much more effective in the field of diplomacy. The question is about objectively possible, not desired field of activity and intensity to overcome the critical matching internal difficulties in EU to external dangers posed by the crisis in the former Soviet Union, Africa, and Middle East.
