Niinistö report
In October 2024, Niinistö presented a report to EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen on "Strengthening Europe's Civilian and Military Preparedness and Readiness", calling for a massive armaments and "security" program, among a large number of proposals.
- The report includes plans for greater intelligence agency cooperation. Niinistö calls to "strengthen EU intelligence structures step-by-step towards a fully-fledged EU service for intelligence cooperation."
- Spreading [made-up] intelligence reports in corporate media. To respond to "hybrid threats such as disinformation" the authors of the report recommend a 'naming and shaming' approach, "rapid attribution and the public use of intelligence to place hybrid actors on the backfoot, preventing or disrupting their malicious plans."
- The report calls for pouring money into the military-industrial complex, "against the backdrop of decades of relative underinvestment in areas such as defence". "At least 20% of the overall EU budget contributes to the EU's security and crisis preparedness."
- Enhance public-private cooperation. Letting big corporations dominate the decision-making process. "Systematically integrate private sector expertise in the development of preparedness policies and emergency planning." This includes things such as "Extend and formalise public-private crisis cooperation arrangements with the Commission that successfully enabled the acceleration of the development and authorisation of treatments and vaccines, as well as the management of the energy crisis."
- Expanding public-private partnerships beyond vaccine development, for instance as part of the Innovative Health Initiative, to encompass the entire spectrum of medical countermeasures, including therapeutics and diagnostics.
- Indoctrination of own citizens to a war mentality - "Actively engaging citizens in crisis preparedness starts with their risk and threat awareness". "The gradual integration of crisis preparedness and risk awareness, as well as media and digital literacy, into education programmes and curricula across the EU could be an additional option to ensure structural investment in societal resilience.
- The use of propaganda 'nutrition labels' to specify which news sources abide by certain ethical and transparency standards (e.g. NewsGuard) to guide citizens "better navigate the numerous dubious news sources appearing on their social media and/or search feed."
- The integration of advanced sensors and Internet of Things devices throughout urban infrastructure.
- Eternal military interventions around its borders. "The EU needs to remain present in fragile and politically sensitive settings that challenge our norms and values, ready to engage in (critical) dialogue and to support vulnerable groups, even if it recalibrates its overall support package. With war and tensions flaring up in a wide arc to our East and South, the EU faces a particular strategic responsibility to step up its security engagement and conflict resolution efforts.
- Total war approach - "reinforcing civilian-military cooperation to ensure that civilian and military crisis response actors enable each other and can operate seamlessly, including to prepare for the most severe military contingencies. For such scenarios, the EU and its Member States will need the capacity to effectively mobilise a whole-of-government response."
