Question 13478 — defense

Summary

Mr. Jean-Michel Jacques draws the attention of the Minister of the Armed Forces to the means given to France's policy of influence abroad. Indeed, in France's military and defense representations to international organizations (NATO, EU, UN), a senior officer is in charge of France's influence policy. The role of these officers is essential, since they participate in the development of the defense network French abroad and are an integral part of the diplomatic defense network, the importance of which is highlighted in the 2017 Strategic Review and the 2019-2025 military programming law. Today, no financial envelope is directly dedicated to this type of mission carried out by the officer in charge of the influence component, so that he can organize events, work meetings, etc. In fact, the financing is left to the discretion of the military representatives and their deputies, who accept or not that part of their representation expenses be used for this purpose. He would therefore like to ask him if an envelope allowing the officers in charge of France's influence policy abroad, whose mission is to develop our defense network and participate in the influence of the country, is envisaged. He also asks her to kindly indicate what measures could be implemented to overcome the difficulties encountered by these personnel.
