Abstract:
The current security environment, the direct consequence of the profound transformations that have occurred in Europe's configuration of the world, is particularly complex, constantly changing, being still marked by destabilizing phenomena regionally or globally.
Emphasising the importance of what should be given to the risks and threats to the non-classical, asymmetrical, organic, given the international character of their cross-border dimension and negative effects, and sometimes irreversible in time, materialise by producing disaster, with direct impact on national security, continental and even planetary.
Ecological security, included in national security objectives, represents, in the new context, an important objective on the agenda of all Governments responsible for maintaining balance planetary environment.
