Since the beginning of its mandate, the Juncker Commission is acting to build a strong Europe that can defend and protect its citizens at home and abroad - an ambition which cannot be achieved without pooling defence spending and strengthening the conditions for an open and competitive defence market in Europe. Against this backdrop, and as announced in the European Defence Action Plan, the Commission is ensuring the effective application of defence procurement rules to help companies operate across borders and help Member States get best value for money.
Dans ce contexte et comme annoncé dans le Plan d'action européen de la défense, la Commission veille à la bonne application des dispositions relatives aux marchés de la défense, afin d'aider les entreprises à exercer leurs activités au-delà des frontières et de faire en sorte que les États membres obtiennent le meilleur rapport qualité-prix.
