NATO's New Strategic Concept, kosovo and the Implications for Intelligence

Abstract

This paper assesses the impact of NATO's new strategic concept adopted in April 1999 and NATO's Operation Allied Force in Kosovo on the future development of intelligence capabilities within the Alliance. The influence of non-article's missions, the Defense Capabilities Initiative and the European Security and Defense Identity in shaping intelligence requirements are considered. The paper also closely examines the intelligence doctrine and procedures used during Operation Allied Force and evaluates them in light of the requirements of modern, precision warfare. Finally, the paper recommends policy. force structure and doctrinal modifications in U.S. and European national intelligence capabilities to properly position NATO intelligence for future warfare.
