The European Union Council adopted a decision to strengthen the space threat response mechanism, aiming to address irresponsible and hostile behaviors that threaten the safety and security of the European Union and its member states, as well as to maintain international stability in space. The new mechanism includes monitoring, issuing warnings, and taking immediate actions through common foreign and security policy tools, with the High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy authorized to approve a provisional response that requires confirmation from the Council within four weeks. The decision also encompasses space security tools, such as restrictive measures, designed to protect European space systems and services from threats. An annual exercise to implement and test the mechanism is also expected to be conducted.
