Summary

According to the bill, in 2023 it will be possible to contribute up to 285 defense personnel to the North Atlantic Organization (NATO) readiness units. The NATO Response Force (NRF) is a high-readiness unit capable of conducting military operations anywhere in the world. The NRF plays a key role in launching NATO's short-notice collective defense operations. The NRF is subordinate to SACEUR (Supreme Allied Commander Europe). to the NRF the transfer is decided by the North Atlantic Council. Ensuring the full manning of the NRF is directly in the interest of the Estonian state, because the NRF ensures NATO's commitment to deterrence and collective defense. In addition, by contributing to its allied obligations, Estonia will also fulfill the NATO Readiness Initiative (NRI) from the beginning of 2021. The aim of the initiative is to increase the readiness of allied forces so that we are ready to react quickly with our own forces, incl in collective defense situations. These units are in addition to the troops already in the NRF.
