This paper contains two articles assessing the status of NATO-EU relations concerning security and defense issues. The first article focuses on the operational aspect of the relationship. The author concludes that considering their overlapping interests, neither NATO nor the EU can afford to fail or afford to see the other fail. The second article examines the ESDP and NATO's capability generation process, concluding that this process is obsolete and should be fundamentally revised if Western militaries intend to retain their battlefield superiority.
