EUCOM AOR

• Strategic Focus Area
• Address gap between TSC and CT strategies through
  strategic and fiscal alignment (Title 10/22)
• Capability doesnt always translate into national
  political will
• Effective CT programs require more than building
  tactical military capability
• Need to improve shared understanding and
  recognition of evolving terrorist threat
• USEUCOMs primary roles--info sharing with
  partner nations and improving partner nations CT
  capabilities

• Pattern recognition
• Europe capabilities significant, CT cooperation
  improving, but partners are vulnerable
• Balkan CT capability undercut by inter-ethnic
  political and social conflict
• Africa CT capabilities undercut by persistent
  political, economic, and social weaknesses
• Not all partner nations have the same
  understanding of the CT problem
