Toespraak bij de SSR-training voor militaire en civiele experts uit EU-listaten

Ladies and gentlemen,

I would first like to say that I am very pleased that you have all come to The Hague this week to take part in the first SSR training under the auspices of the Netherlands and French Defence Academies and the European Security and Defence College. I would like to extend a special thanks to the French EU presidency for helping to organise this module.
