Process Overview

 Why Security Cooperation?

• Security Cooperation supports near-term (1-5 years) and long-

term (out to 30 years) strategic GWOT objectives
• Builds understanding and consensus on terrorist threat
• Promotes security, stability, and hope (self-determination)
• “Share and care”
• Democratic ideals

13
 CinC’s View of SC
We must defeat the terrorists on the battlefield, and we must also
defeat them in the battle of ideas. We must change the
conditions that allow terrorists to flourish and recruit, by
spreading the hope of freedom to millions who’ve never known it.
We must help raise up the failing states and stagnant societies
that provide fertile ground for the terrorists. We must defend and
extend a vision of human dignity, and opportunity, and
prosperity—a vision far stronger than the appeal of dark
resentment and murder…Across the world, hearts and minds are
opening to the message of human liberty as never before.

President George W. Bush,

UN Headquarters, 14 Sep 05

14
 Commander’s Vision
We seek a Europe that is a global partner for peace
and security, an Africa that is self-sufficient and
stable, and a Middle East at peace founded on a
transformed, expeditionary EUCOM advancing US
interests forward that promotes regional security
and stability, through enduring cooperation with a
transforming and expanding NATO, the
development of other capable regional security
organizations, and effective security cooperation
programs.

General James L. Jones
