The OSCE Dialogue on Military Doctrines, an expert seminar organised on the initiative of Austria with substantial support by Slovakia as the OSCE chair country and in collaboration with Switzerland’s OSCE Forum for Security Cooperation (FSC) Chairmanship, took place in Vienna on 8-9 April 2019. Providing support to the event was a common commitment of the SVK MOD and the SVK Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs during the Slovak 2019 OSCE Chairmanship, one rooted in our long-standing active support for the agenda of forging close military ties as part of the OSCE’s politico-military dimension.
The event was opened by AUS Chief of Defence Staff General Robert Brieger. On behalf of the Slovak Republic, Director of the International Relations Department Bohuš Kuchta presented a speech in which he underpinned the priorities of the Slovak 2019 OSCE Chairmanship in the politico-military field and underscored the importance of close military ties with their potential impact and leverage on the formation of the security environment in the OSCE region.
Slovakia as the OSCE chair country was actively involved in the Dialogue. Appearing on the ‘Military Doctrines and Exercise Scenarios’ panel were Col Norbert Hríb, of the SVK General Staff, and Col (Rtd) Vladimír Zikmund, of the SVK Army HQ, who presented the SVK military’s position on the subject matter. In their presentations, they focused on exercise scenarios in the context of today’s geopolitical developments and security threats, on the concept design of military doctrines and their impact on the use of armed forces, as well as on the creation of military doctrines with regard to hybrid threats.
