<p align="center" class="style26"><em>"We all know that
growing economies in the east are graduating many more
students <br>
from their
universities
than the U.S. and Europe together.
Should <br>
we regard this as a
problem and, if so, what can be done?</em>"</p>
<p>It is indeed a great pleasure for me to take part
in this workshop and I send my thanks to Mr. Volkman for inviting me to
participate on this panel. In my introduction I would like to share some of my
thoughts regarding the relationship between governments and industries through
the following question:��� Is the progress we see in Europe on the right course
in a global context?</p>
<p align="center" class="style26">A STRONG FOCUS ON DEFENSE
AND INDUSTRIAL ISSUES</p>
<p>������� First of all, I think the political
attention that defense and industrial issues are currently being given is quite
remarkable. However, the reason for this is not difficult to understand, and
was stated earlier in the conference: a strong security and defense policy
needs a strong European defense and technology industrial base as well as a
well-functioning defense equipment market. The DTIB is consequently one of the
cornerstones of the security policy, and one of the main instruments for
achieving it in Europe has of course been the creation of the European Defense
Agency.</p>
<p>�������� �However, there are other explanations of
why great attention continues to be paid to defense and industrial matters:</p>
<p>� ��� Pressure on defense budgets</p>
<p>� ��� The need for further harmonization and consolidation</p>
<p>� ��� Increasing costs for using materiel and systems</p>
<p>� ��� Broad consensus among MSs that action needs to be taken</p>
<p>�������� But questions regarding the DTIB are not
new. Ten years ago the agreement between the six LoI countries was signed to
facilitate the reconstruction of the industrial base by creating the necessary
political and legal framework for promoting a more competitive and stronger
industrial base. A number of European countries have similar agreements with
the U.S. under the Declaration of Principles. The main difference we see today
is the attention we give these matters in a global context.</p>
<p align="center" class="style26">THE NEED TO ACT</p>
<p>�������� I would say that if we do not act now, we
might not reach the goals we defined both from a political and an industrial
point of view. We know what the problems are and what the goal is. It is now a
question of implementation. But have we made any substantial progress so far?
My answer would definitely be yes.</p>
<p>������� Earlier we heard about the need for
levering technologies. But other issues we are dealing with are extraordinarily
complex and time consuming, including issues regarding the security of supply,
the security of information, and harmonization of military requirements. These
are all prerequisites for a DTIB and a DEM that truly function, but they cannot
and will not be solved in a day. These issues have to be solved through common
rules and regulations, through transparency, and through mutual confidence.</p>
<p> ������ However, we need to recognize that
there are 26 countries in Europe that have different industrial structures and
demands for defense products and systems. We also need to recognize the
challenge that the different industrial bases were created for a totally
different purpose than what we need today. The EDA is of course the locomotive
for dealing with these issues as well as the melting point for unifying
different opinions. </p>
<p> ������� In my opinion it is important that
we take stock of the results we already have achieved in different
organizations and under existing co-operation agreements. The one simply must
not exclude the other, both from a European perspective as well as from a
global perspective. Working together we could gain the added value that is
necessary and progress we make in Europe could definitely benefit the
transatlantic link and vice versa.</p>
<p> ������ In the defense and equipment market,
we need to recognize that it is a far from perfect market and ask ourselves if
it ever will be, given its features. But the introduction of harmonized rules
and regulations is fundamental. Such rules and regulations will allow
governments to use more instruments for running cost-efficient programs and
assist industry by making companies more competitive on the global market.</p>
<p align="center" class="style26">ATTRACTING THE RIGHT COMPETENCIES TO THE DEFENSE SECTOR</p>
<p> ������ Finally, I would like to bring up
one other issue, perhaps for consideration by my colleagues from industry. One
challenge that we all face is how to attract the right competencies to the
defense sector. This is most certainly not a question of Europe versus the U.S.
but a question that has to be seen in a global context. We all know that
growing economies in the east are graduating many more students from their
universities than the U.S. and Europe together. Should we regard this as a
problem and, if so, what can be done?</p>
