Defence forces of the European Union

This article outlines the defence forces of the European Union (EU), which implement the EU's Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) in EUFOR missions. There are two categories of EU multinational forces: ones that have been established intergovernmentally and made available to the CSDP through Article 42(3) of the Treaty on European Union (TEU), such as the Eurocorps; and units established directly at the EU level, such as EU battlegroups and the Rapid Deployment Capacity.
