   Presentato da Catarina Martins · The Left

   Article 31 – paragraph 1 a (new)

   Presentato da Catarina Martins · The Left

   Aggiunto: 1a. The use of military assets and capacities for providing assistance through the Union mechanism shall remain a last resort, under civilian oversight, subject to formal proof of the unavailability of civilian means. The deployment of these military assets shall be strictly limited to non-combat transport and logistical support under civilian operational direction, and no funds under this Regulation shall be allocated for the procurement or maintenance of military-grade equipment

   Aggiunto: (1a) The current Union Mechanism has demonstrated its effectiveness, in particular during the summer of 2026, when numerous wildfires affected various European countries. This Regulation should therefore preserve the core function and the exclusive civilian character of the Union Mechanism in support of Member States’ primary responsibility. New tasks and objectives should be limited to what is necessary for that purpose, should not divert financial or operational resources from it, and should remain strictly within the limits of the Union’s supporting competence.

   Recital 23 a (new)

   Presentato da Aleksandar Nikolic, Mathilde Androuët, Silvia Sardone +3 · PfE

   Aggiunto: (23a) It should be noted that the strong public support for the Union Mechanism relates to operational solidarity between Member States and not to the transfer of crisis management powers to the Commission. Defence and national security are the sole responsibility of each Member State under Article 4(2) TEU, and the Union’s role in security and defence is governed exclusively by the intergovernmental provisions of Title V of the TEU, in which the Commission has no executive role. The Union Mechanism should therefore remain a civilian mechanism and not serve as a framework for civil-military preparedness arrangements.
