External Action European Service in practice: An EU’s enhanced contribution in peacekeeping?

Abstract: This paper aims to analyse the impact that the setup and functioning of a new body, as original and innovative from an institutional point of view as the European External Action Service, could have in the consolidation of the EU’s position as a significant and reliable international partner in peacekeeping, both in the short and medium terms. This timing appears appropriate to do so insofar as, after four years of existence and having overcome a significant number of teething problems, a refl ection process on the weaknesses and potentialities of the EEAS is currently in place and could eventually lead to a review of its founding Decision.

Key Words: CSDP Missions, EU External Action, European External Action Service (EEAS), EU Delegations, EU High Representative, Peacekeeping.
