At the EU Foreign Affairs Council, we have just approved the launch of the Aspides naval military operation, of which Italy will have command of the forces. Italy is at the forefront to protect merchant interests and free navigation in the Red Sea. It is a significant step towards common European defense," announces Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani on X. Rear Admiral Costantino: "Italy will complement the political role it has played in the launch of the operation with an important operational role: it will provide the Force Commander - Rear Admiral Costantino - and the Force Headquarters, which will be installed on a destroyer," diplomatic sources report. The Aspides Operational Command will be detached at the European Headquarters in Larissa, while the Strategic Command will remain - as for all EU military missions and operations - in Brussels. Italy will have tactical command: The mission will last at least one year, with possible renewal following a decision by the EU Council, it will be defensive and does not precede ground attacks. The strategic command of the operation will be entrusted to Greece and will be open to the participation of third countries. The tactical command will belong to Italy, which will be present with an Italian Navy ship. The purpose of the mission is to ensure the principle of freedom of navigation, excluding any kind of involvement in land operations against Houthi bases in Yemen. Currently, there are two missions in the area that skirts the Gulf of Aden. The first is Operation Atalanta, established in 2008 against pirate attacks on merchant ships off the Somali coast. Italy participates in this mission, and our country took over the command on February 11th. The second operation is Emasoh/Agenor, born on French initiative, active in the Strait of Hormuz, between the Arabian Peninsula and Iran, with an operational command in Abu Dhabi. Aspides could use ships, personnel and equipment from the Agenor mission, thus giving rise to an operation with a much wider perimeter. The defensive nature: The Aspides mission (shields) hinges on a recent mandate from the United Nations and on Articles 42, 43 and 44 of the Treaty of the European Union (TEU). Article 42 provides for the use of "civilian and military means in missions outside the EU to ensure the maintenance of peace, the prevention of conflicts and the strengthening of international security, in accordance with the principles of the UN Charter." Article 44 gives the possibility of entrusting such interventions to a group of member countries, volunteers with adequate capabilities. The mission provides for the shooting down of drones, missiles and any other weapon directed against merchant ships. It does not provide for attacks on Yemeni territory, as is the case for the Prosperity Guardian led by the US. Possible reactions to attacks by enemy military ships will be subject to discussion. Participating countries: The total number has not yet been certified. Beyond Italy, France and Germany it seems almost certain that those who participate in the Agenor mission will be there: they could be Portugal, Denmark, the Netherlands, in addition to Greece which has strategic command. Belgium has said it will participate, Ireland and Spain will not send either ships or men.
