Description
Description | The European Defence Mechanism (EDM) is a proposed intergovernmental structure designed to coordinate joint procurement and finance strategic capabilities among willing European states. It aims to directly own critical assets and recoup costs through usage fees charged to members, distributing the financial burden of military modernization more evenly. Membership would require abolishing state subsidies and preferential procurement practices that privilege domestic contractors. The proposal is under active discussion among EU leaders. |
