To enable military movement at speed and scale, the European Commission is proposing an approach similar to a ‘military Schengen’.
A set of measures that will significantly enhance military mobility across Europe. The measures will create an EU-wide military mobility area where troops, equipment and military assets can move around quickly and smoothly.
The Key measures:
• Faster mobility: having one single permission procedure to move military devices for all 27 EU countries and fast-track procedures and priority access to infrastructure
• Pool and share capabilities for transport and logistics
• Better routes: Upgrading key EU military mobility corridors to civilian and military-purpose standards
• A single authority: Designating a National coordinator for Military Transport in each Member State and simplifying governance at EU Level
