It’s not American!

Javier promotes a different brand of politics to deal with crises

This Spanish physicist turned strategist is a die-hard European. Having held the Secretary-General’s post at NATO from 1995-99, Javier Solana has been in the thick of security planning of the amalgamated continent. Now, as the High Representative (HR) for the Common Foreign & Security Policy (CFSP) of the European Union, he has an onerous task at hand of managing the inherent & emerging contradictions in a highly globalised world. From Tehran to Trinidad, Javier had been engaged is promoting the unique blend of EU’s way of dealing with conflicts & crisis in the 50th year of the European Union.

His astute diplomatic skills and his vast experience in handling vexed issues came to the fore during the year. “For the Europeans, the signature of the Lisbon Treaty in December is very important. It will give us better instruments to face new challenges. On the international stage, we will continue to work closely with our partners and the international community to contribute to peace in the world. Stabilising the situation in the Balkans and the peace process in the Middle East will be top priorities,” Javier Solana told exclusively to B&E.
