SECURITY, NEW CHALLENGES. “NEED TO KNOW” VERSUS “NEED TO SHARE”
Journal Title: Impact Strategic - Year 2007, Vol 22, Issue 1
Abstract
The article tries to provide a short description for a new issue revealed in common use of the intelligence products in theatres or in support of some NATO missions, in which there also participate PfP countries or even the ones with which there are only bilateral agreements for accomplishing some missions. Beside the issues related to some gaps concerning the applicability of some new principles regarding the common use of intelligence in theatres, the article tries to be a short description of the situation from a doctrinal point of view and also from the perspective of the negative effects that can be induced, due to the lack of some clear statements on the subject. Also, the author tries to propose some solutions in order to pass those impediments especially by inputting some new evaluating criteria for the intelligence supporting structure belonging to the echelons dislocated in different NATO missions. The conception of common use of some sources of information is used by the author in order to stress out not only some aspects related to this process, insuffi cient adapted to the operational reality of the theatres, but also some implications related to the structures for coordinating and conducting the intelligence operations in different areas and, therefore, the implications upon military structures security.
