Uporaba sil Evropske unije izven njenih meja
The EU’s use of force outside its borders
Varnost in obramba
Security and defence
Ali namerava Evropska unija poslati svoje vojake v Demokratično republiko Kongo?
Is the EU going to send soldiers to the Democratic Republic of the Congo?
Odločitev o tem bo sprejeta kmalu, ne bo pa šlo za prvo tovrstno misijo.
A decision is due soon.
V preteklosti je namreč Unija s vojaškimi silami že ukrepala zunaj svojih meja.
This wouldn’t be the first European mission of this type, as the EU has intervened militarily outside its borders in the recent past.
Kaj daje EU pravico do uporabe sile?
What is the justification for the EU’s use of force?
Kateri so pogoji za poseg?
What are the criteria for intervening?
Kakšna je pri tem vloga parlamenta?
What is Parliament’s role?
To so bila vprašanja na javni razpravi, ki jo je organiziral pododbor Evropskega parlamenta za varnost in obrambo.
These were the questions raised during a public hearing organised by Parliament’s Security &amp; Defence Subcommittee.
Evropska unija ima od leta 1992 skupno zunanjo in varnostno politiko (SZVP), od leta 1999 pa tudi varnostno in obrambno politiko (EVOP).
The European Union has had a common security policy (ECSP) since 1992 and, since 1999, it has also had a security and defence policy (ESDP).
Do nedavnega ni imela ustreznih sredstev za tovrstno delovanje, kar se je najbolj jasno pokazalo med vojno na območju nekdanje Jugoslavije v 90-ih letih, ko EU ni bila sposobna oblikovati ustreznega odgovora na tovrsten spor.
It was the war in the former Yugoslavia in the 1990s which brought home the stark realisation that the EU was incapable of providing an adequate response to conflicts like this.
Na evropskem vrhu v Helsinkih decembra 1999 so zato države članice sprejele odločitev o "oblikovanju neodvisnih zmogljivosti za delovanje z ustreznimi vojaškimi silami".
As a result, at the 1999 Helsinki Summit, Member States decided to establish “an independent capacity for action backed by credible military forces.”
Takrat zastavljeni cilj, 60 tisoč vojakov v skupnih silah, še ni dosežen.
However, the goal of having the capability to deploy up to 60,000 military personnel has not been reached.
Zunanje delovanje EU trenutno poteka skozi "bojne skupine", ki imajo od 30 do 1500 pripadnikov.
At the present time, the EU intervenes externally through units known as “battle groups”, which are made up of between 30 to 1500 personnel.
Od leta 2003 zajema EVOP posredovanje tako v civilnih kakor tudi vojaških operacijah.
Since 2003, the ESDP has been in operation for both civilian and military crisis management.
Unija je tako na različne načine posredovala v Bosni in Hercegovini, Makedoniji, Kongu, Gruziji, Sudanu, Iraku, Indoneziji, na palestinskih ozemljih ter na meji med Ukrajino in Moldavijo.
Thus the EU has been able to intervene in various ways in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Macedonia, the Congo, Georgia, Sudan, Iraq, Indonesia, in Palestine and Gaza and on the border between Ukraine and Moldova.
Zakaj in kam
The whys and wherefores
Ker ekonomski in politični vpliv EU na mednarodnem prizorišču naraščata, je večja tudi njena odgovornost, kar nemalokrat pomeni uporabo sile.
As the EU’s economic and political weight increases on the international scene, its responsibilities become greater and the use of force is sometimes essential when assuming these responsibilities.
Kot je 23. januarja v imenu predsedstva EU na javni razpravi v Evropskem parlamentu poudaril avstrijski veleposlanik Franz Cede, se mora delovanje EU potekati v skladu z Ustanovno listino Združenih narodov.
As Ambassador Franz Cede, who spoke on behalf of the Austrian EU Presidency, said during the 23 February parliamentary hearing, EU action has to conform to the UN Charter.
Listina sicer načeloma prepoveduje uporabo sile, vendar pa je njena uporaba dovoljena v primerih kolektivne obrambe ali samoobrambe.
While the Charter bans the use of force in principle, it can be justified in cases of collective and self-defence.
Unija lahko tudi izvaja tako imenovane "petersberške naloge", ki zajemajo evakuacije, človekoljubne misije, ohranjanje miru in bojne misije za vzpostavitev miru.
The EU can also undertake so-called Petersberg Missions (evacuation and humanitarian missions, peacekeeping missions and combat missions to restore peace).
Ob tem pa meja med preprečevanjem in posegom ni vedno popolnoma jasna.
But it is not always easy to make a clear distinction between prevention and intervention.
Kot je dodal Stefano Silvestri, predsednik rimskega inštituta za mednarodne odnose, so ukrepi za nadzor kriznih razmer odvisni od tega, kako se kriza razvija.
As Stefano Silvestri (President of the Institute of International Affairs in Rome) noted, all crisis-control measures depend on how the crisis evolves.
Po njegovem mnenju je "čakanje, dokler kriza ne izbruhne, samomorilsko početje, ki lahko pripelje le do pogostejše, manj nadzorovane in manj učinkovite uporabe sil".
In his view, “the idea of waiting until a crisis erupts is suicidal and will lead to a more frequent, less controlled and less effective use of force.”
Pri tem je naraščajoč pristop glede uporabe ukrepov (civilne sankcije, vojaške sankcije, vojaški poseg) naravni razvoj dogodkov, saj sledi stopnjevanju spora.
An incremental approach in terms of measures taken (civil and military sanctions and intervention) is natural since it corresponds to the different stages of a conflict.
Okvir delovanja in pooblastila
Framework and mandate
Posegi v imenu EU niso nadnacionalne narave, ampak se izvajajo na podlagi odločitev Sveta EU.
Interventions made on behalf of the EU are not supranational in nature, they are subject to the decision of the Council.
André Dumoulin, profesor na belgijski kraljevi vojaški akademiji, je ob tem poudaril, da dejanska legitimnost posega vedno izhaja iz ravni države.
André Dumoulin, professor at the Belgian Royal Military Academy, pointed out that the real legitimacy for intervention always springs from the nation state.
Številni govorniki so se strinjali, da države članice, čeprav spoštujejo načela Ustanovne listine ZN, ne čakajo vedno tudi na resolucijo svetovne organizacije za dovoljenje za poseg.
Several speakers concluded that, while abiding by the principles of the UN Charter, Member States do not always wait for a UN resolution before intervening.
Martin Ortega, raziskovalec na pariškem inštitutu za varnostne študije, je opozoril na razliko med legalnostjo in legitimnostjo vojaškega posega.
In this regard, Martin Ortega, a researcher at the Paris-based EU Institute for Security Studies, highlighted the distinction between the legality and the legitimacy of an intervention.
Kot meni Stefano Sannino iz Evropske komisije, je poseg lahko legitimen tudi v primeru, če njegov pravni status ni čisto jasen.
According to Stefano Sannino of the European Commission, action can be legitimate even if its legal status is unclear.
Večkrat se je pojavilo tudi občutljivo vprašanje "sobivanja" načrtovanih Evropskih obrambnih sil in Severnoatlantske zveze.
The sensitive issue of a future European defence force co-existing with the Atlantic Alliance came up on several occasions.
Roman Kuzinar, direktor poljskega inštituta za mednarodne zadeve, je tako zavrnil domnevo, da zveza NATO in EU delujeta usklajeno.
For example, Roman Kuzniar, Director of the Polish Institute of International Affairs, rejected the assumption that NATO and the EU work in concert.
Način delovanja NATO določajo ZDA, kulturne, strukturne in vojaške razlike med ZDA in EU pa so prevelike, da bi lahko od partnerjev pričakovali enak odnos.
The USA sets the tone for NATO and cultural, structural and power differences between it and the EU are too great to expect the two partners’ attitudes to be identical.
V svojem odgovoru na izziv pa je predstavnik zveze NATO Jamie Shea poudaril, da "nismo doktor Jekyill in gospod Hyde − EU in NATO sodelujeta tudi na civilnem področju in to sodelovanje lahko poteka brez ovir".
Responding to this, the NATO representative, Jamie Shea, said that ”we are not Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde – the EU and the Alliance also co-operate at the civilian level and we can carry on doing so.”
Demokratični nadzor
Democratic control
Evropski poslanci, ki so sodelovali v razpravi so izpostavili tudi vprašanje demokratičnega nadzora nad tovrstnimi posegi.
The MEPs who spoke during the session also raised the issue of the democratic control of interventions.
Karl von Wogau, nemški krščanski demokrat, ki predseduje pododboru za varnost in obrambo, je kritično ocenil trenutno stanje na tem področju, saj parlament nima nikakršne vloge pri sprejemanju odločitev o napotitvi vojaških enot in pri nadzoru misij EU, kar je v nasprotju z demokratičnimi standardi, ki sicer veljajo v državah članicah.
Karl von Wogau, the German Christian Democrat who chairs the Security and Defence Subcommittee, criticised the current state of affairs, saying that Parliament’s role in the decision to send troops and in the oversight of EU missions bore no relation at all to the democratic standards applicable to a nation state.

Evropski poslanci pozivajo k ukrepom proti prisilni prostituciji
MEPs call for action to combat forced prostitution
Rdeči karton prisilni prostituciji
EP shows the red card to forced prostitution
Ob mednarodnemu dnevu žensk organizira parlamentarni odbor za pravice žensk seminar, na katerega so povabljeni predstavniki iz sveta športa in politike ter nevladnih organizacij, njegov namen pa je osveščanje o problemu prisilne prostitucije, ki spremlja velike mednarodne športne prireditve.
To mark International Women’s Day Wednesday, the European Parliament’s Committee on Women’s Rights has invited representatives from NGOs, sports and politics to a seminar aiming to raise awareness and discuss strategies to tackle forced prostitution on the fringes of major international sports events.
Večji dogodki, kot so športne prireditve ali veliki sejmi, naj bi v krajih dogajanja po številnih ocenah prinesle skokovit porast povpraševanja po spolnih storitvah in tudi prisilno prostitucijo.
Big events such as sports events and fairs are said to provoke a sharp increase in the demand for sexual services including an increase in forced prostitution.
Predsednica parlamentarnega odbora za pravice žensk, slovaška krščanska demokratka Ana Záborská in dve članici - Hiltrud Breyer, nemška poslanka Zelenih ter avstrijska socialdemokratka Christa Prets - so razložile, zakaj so prepričane, da je skrajni čas za razpravo o prisilni prostituciji na svetovnih športnih prireditvah.
Chairwoman, Slovak Christian Democrat Anna Záborská, and two members of the Women’s Rights Committee, German Green Hiltrud Breyer and Austrian Socialist Christa Prets, tell us why they believe it is high time to turn the spotlight on forced prostitution in the framework of world sports events.
V Evropi 100 tisoč ženskih žrtev trgovine z belim blagom
100,000 women victims of human trafficking in Europe
V času svetovnega nogometnega prvenstva v Nemčiji, ki bo potekalo od 9. junija do 9. julija, bo v spolno izkoriščanje prisiljenjih nekaj tisoč deklet in žensk."
Several thousand girls and women are going to be forced into sexual exploitation in Germany for the World Cup (9 June-9 July)”.
Poslanka Hiltrud Breyer, ki je pobudnica osveščanja o tem problemu ob mednarodnemu dnevu žensk, pravi, da "je bistvenega pomena nameniti veliko več pozornosti usodi in bedi žensk, ki so jih prodali za spolno izkoriščanje.
Ms Breyer, who is behind the idea to raise awareness about this topic on International Women’s Day, says "it is essential to focus more attention on the fate and misery of women trafficked for sexual exploitation.
Fair play v športu pomeni tudi zavračanje prisilne prostitucije!"
Fair play in sport also goes with the refusal of forced prostitution!”
Poslanka Anna Záborská pa meni, da je pobuda izjemna priložnost za poslanico o spoštovanju ženskega dostojanstva in človekovih pravic, hkrati pa omogoča izmenjavo izkušenj o načinih boja proti prisilni prostituciji.
Ms Záborská sees the initiative as an important opportunity to launch a universal message about respect of women's dignity and human rights, while providing a venue to exchange views about best practices to combat forced prostitution.
Problem, ki ne pozna meja
A problem without borders
Poslanka Záborská upa, da je to le začetek širšega ukrepanja proti prisilni prostituciji, ki mora potekati tako na evropski ravni kot v samih državah članicah.
Ms Záborská hopes this is only the start of a campaign against forced prostitution, which she underlines requires action at European and national level.
Za Hiltrud Breyer je seminar "le začetek vseevropskega boja proti prisilni prostituciji," ki trgovino z belim blagom postavlja v središče javne razprave.
According to Ms Breyer the seminar aims to be the “kick-off event in the EU-wide combat against forced prostitution”, putting trafficking on the agenda more strongly.
Zaveda se tudi, da se morajo ukrepi proti trgovini z belim blagom nanašati tako na preprečevanje pojava kot tudi na zaščito žrtve.
She is clear that actions to combat human trafficking must put the emphasis on both the prevention and protection of victims.
Prisilna prostitucija "pomeni kršitev človekovih pravic in evropske zakonodaje," dodaja Christa Prets, ki upa, da se bo javnost zavedla, da trgovina z belim blagom "ni le problem posameznih držav, ampak mednarodne skupnosti, zato so nujni skupni ukrepi znotraj EU".
Forced prostitution “violates human rights and infringes EU-law," notes Ms Prets, who hopes the seminar will raise consciousness that trafficking is “not a national but an international concern”, which calls for common measures within the EU.
Tema seminarja, ki bo 8. marca, bo tudi na dnevnem redu plenarnega zasedanja od 13. do 16. marca, ko bodo parlamentarci razpravljali in glasovali o resoluciji o evropski kampanji za obveščanje ter izobraževanje širše javnosti glede prisilne prostitucije v času mednarodnih športnih dogodkov.
The 8 March seminar will be followed up during the 13-16 March Parliamentary plenary session by discussion of a resolution for a European-wide campaign to inform and educate the general public about forced prostitution during world sports events.
Evropski parlament je že vrsto let dejaven v prizadevanjih za zatiranje trgovine z belim blagom in nasilja.
The European Parliament has been active for many years in campaigns to prevent trafficking of human beings and violence against women.

Parlament preiskuje domnevne dejavnosti agencije CIA v Evropi
Parliament probes alleged CIA activities in Europe
Poročevalec Claudio Fava in predsednik odbora Carlos Coelho
Committee Rapporteur Claudio Fava and Chairman Carlos Coelho
Domneve o skrivnih zaporih ameriške obveščevalne agencije CIA v Evropi, "izrednih izročitvah"in uporabi evropskih letališč za prevoze osumljenih teroristov, ostajajo v središču pozornosti.
The controversy over whether the CIA operated secret detention centres in Europe and a policy of "extraordinary rendition" to move terrorist suspects around using European airports refuses to die down.
Parlament pa je 18. januarja ustanovil začasni odbora za preiskavo domnev, pri čemer bo poskušal ugotoviti, ali je res šlo za ugrabitve, mučenja in nehumano oziroma ponižujoče ravnanje z osumljenci.
Amid the furore, the Parliament voted on 18 January to set up a cross-party committee of members to investigate the allegations - in particular whether they involved "abductions.....torture, inhuman or degrading treatment...."
Kakšen je namen odbora?
What is the purpose of the committee?
Carlos Coelho: "Pri delu izhajamo iz štirih temeljnih predpostavk - najprej moramo ugotoviti dejstva.
Carlos Coelho: There are four questions that will guide our work: Firstly, we must deal with the facts.
Drugič: če se je to res dogajalo, je treba ugotoviti, v kakšnem obsegu se je dogajalo.
Secondly, if these activities did take place, to what extent did they take place.
Tretjič: moramo ugotoviti, če so bili državljani EU med žrtvami in, če so bili morda med storilci.
Thirdly, we must establish if European Union citizens were victims or whether they were in any way complicit.
Četrtič: ugotoviti moramo tudi morebitno vpletenost državnih uradnikov članic EU - ali so sodelovali aktivno, oziroma so dopustili te dejavnosti."
Finally, we must establish if officials of EU members were complicit by action or omission.
Claudio Fava: "Naš odbor želi priti resnici do dna - torej, ali je agencija CIA res imela skrivne zapore V Evropi in, če so vlade držav članic ali kandidatk sodelovale pri izvajanju izrednih izročitev.
Claudio Fava: The institutional purpose of our committee is to seek truth: i.e. to ascertain whether any secret CIA detention centres were established in European territory, and whether any governments of Member or Candidate countries cooperated in the practice of “extraordinary renditions”.
Ob tem se postavlja tudi politični cilj - vnovični poudarek pomena vloge človekovih pravic, varovanje katerih mora ostati prednostna naloga, tudi v boju proti mednarodnemu terorizmu."
There is also a political objective....to reassert the pivotal role of human rights and give priority to their protection, also in the fight against international terrorism.
Kako bo odbor preiskoval domnevne kršitve?
How will the committee investigate the allegations?
Carlos Coelho: "Naša vloga je poslušati, kaj nam imajo za povedati priče, žrtve in strokovnjaki.
Carlos Coelho: Our role is to listen to witnesses, victims and experts.
Že od samega začetka smo v dejavnosti vključili evropske institucije (Evropsko komisijo in Svet EU) ter na vseh 25 držav članic naslovili prošnje za sodelovanje.
We have involved the European Institutions (European Commission, European Council) from the start and have also written to all 25 member states of the Union asking for cooperation.
Preučili bomo vso dostopno dokumentacijo in analizirali vse, kar bomo našli."
We will examine all available documentation and analyse what we find.
Claudio Fava: "Odbor bo deloval na institucionalni ravni, tako da je zahteval sodelovanje vlad držav članic EU in kandidatk.
Claudio Fava: The committee will operate on an institutional level, requesting collaboration firstly of the governments of EU and candidate countries.
Še bolj pomembno pa bo delovanje na neinstitucionalni ravni − pri zbiranju dokazov, dejstev, izjav prič.
But it will be even more important to operate on a non-institutional level, to collect evidence, facts, witness accounts.
Ali boste pred odbor povabili tudi uslužbence agencije CIA?
Are you going to ask someone from the CIA to appear before the committee?
Carlos Coelho: "Nisem tako naiven, da bi od tretjih držav pričakoval takšno stopnjo sodelovanja, kot je znotraj Evropske unije.
Carlos Coelho: I am not so naive to imagine that cooperation from third countries will be the same as it will be within the European Union.
Pred nadaljnjimi koraki moramo ugotoviti, kakšna je bila vloga EU."
We must establish an EU position on this before we take it further.
Carlos Coelho: "Kot predsednik odbora ne smem vnaprej sprejemati zaključkov ali izrekati groženj.
Carlos Coelho: As Chairman I should not anticipate the conclusions or make threatening remarks in advance.
Moramo se zavedati, da gre za različne stopnje védenja in vpletenosti.
We must also realise that there are different kinds of knowledge and complicity.
Vedeti med dejanjem se korenito razlikuje od védenja po samem dejanju.
Knowing during the fact is significantly different from knowing after the fact.
Ne glede na notranjepolitične posledice pa bi, kot je dejal že evropski komisar za pravosodje Franco Frattini, resničnost domnev pomenila kršitev 6. člena Pogodbe o EU.
Regardless of the domestic political consequences, as Franco Frattini, European Commission for Justice and Security has already said, if the allegations were true that would amount to a violation of Article 6 of the EU Treaty.
Obenem bi to pomenilo tudi kršitev Evropske konvencije o človekovih pravicah in Listine o temeljnih pravicah.
They would also constitute a violation of the European Convention on human rights and the Charter of Fundamental rights.
Vsekakor je za zaključke še prezgodaj, priporočila bomo oblikovali kasneje."
However, at this stage it is too early to anticipate - we should make recommendations later.
Claudio Fava: "V skladu s 6. in 7. členom Pogodbe o EU obstaja možnost, da se Svetu EU predlaga sprejem različnih vrst ukrepov proti državi članici, vključno z zamrznitvijo pravice do glasovanja v Svetu."
Claudio Fava: Articles 6 and 7 of the Treaties foresee the possibility of proposing to the Council various degrees of sanctions against Member States, right up to suspension of their right to vote.
