The Bundeswehr Joint Support Command ensures the integration of the Bundeswehr in NATONorth Atlantic Treaty Organization and the EUEuropean Union through military attachés, multinational headquarters, logistic support within NATONorth Atlantic Treaty Organization, and operational command and control for the European Union.
Close cooperation with allies allows for rapid force deployment throughout NATONorth Atlantic Treaty Organization territory, effective mission planning for EUEuropean Union units, military training assistance and multinational joint operations. For the Bundeswehr, strong international ties are indispensable. NATONorth Atlantic Treaty Organization and the EUEuropean Union provide protection to the Federal Republic of Germany in a world that is becoming more dangerous, and the Bundeswehr plays an essential role in this protection.
Collective defence begins with cooperation. National defence cannot succeed without effective integration into NATONorth Atlantic Treaty Organization and the EUEuropean Union.
The Bundeswehr Joint Support Command pools capabilities essential for multinational cooperation and the Bundeswehr’s integration in NATONorth Atlantic Treaty Organization and the EUEuropean Union. Defence attaché offices, Multinational Joint Headquarters Ulm (MN JHQMultinational Joint Headquarters Ulm), and the Allied Joint Support and Enabling Command (JSECJoint Support and Enabling Command) connect the Bundeswehr to worldwide networks and ensure its ability to honour obligations within the Alliance.
