Several member states argue the initiative may duplicate NATO's existing policy, creating friction over institutional roles. The outcome will shape European resilience coordination and could signal a shift in EU-NATO burden-sharing.

This initiative, alongside efforts to bolster hybrid attack responses, indicates a strategic shift towards deeper EU defense integration. Key uncertainties remain regarding the protocol's scope, activation criteria, and potential duplication with NATO's existing security architecture.
