The foundation of the GPP defence strategy is the reliable solidarity of all member states. Protection does not come about through threatening behaviour – but through a clear, active willingness to stand by each other.
This includes in particular:
Consistent measures against aggressors:All GPP states undertake to take collective economic and political measures in the event of behaviour by a state that violates international law –with a clear line and without national exceptions.
Supply guarantee within the community:If sanctions lead to shortages, the other member states provide up to 10% of their available resources in the areas of energy, food, medicine and technology.This is coordinated by the GPP deployment structure. The burden is distributed fairly according to GDP. Supplies are provided at solidarity prices, i.e. without commercial mark-ups.
Willingness to limit themselves:Countries that temporarily accept restrictions in order to help others demonstrate the strength of a genuine peace alliances.
