Summary:

Jean-Claude Juncker defined making Europe a stronger global actor as one of his ten working priorities as President of the European Commission. Considering Europe mainly as a 'soft power' in security and defence issues, Juncker highlighted that 'even the strongest soft powers cannot make do in the long run without at least some integrated defence capacities'.
