The Article 13a of Treaty of Lisbon provides for a European External Action Service (EEAS) to be set up to assist the High Representative of the Union in his / her duties and cooperate with the diplomatic services of the Member States. This EEAS will be composed of officials from relevant departments of the General Secretariat of the Council of Ministers and of the Commission and staff seconded from national diplomatic services.
As expected, the matter rises a lot of questions, as seen in today’s EurActiv article.
