European Union ministers of defence met informally in Tallinn on September 7, 2017.During that meeting, they expressed a broad consensus on how to move ahead with the Permanent
Structured Cooperation (PESCO).The present document, which is based on previous EURODEFENSE studies, could help Member States in their reflection on the definition of the PESCO criteria, which must be binding in order to respect its spirit, but also inclusive to accommodate Member States wishing to join it.
