THE DEFENCE SECTOR THROUGH THE PRISM OF EFFECTIVE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT ACCORDING TO NATO STANDARDS

Abstract

The article examines issues related to the main current reforms in the defence sector of Ukraine. In the opinion of the author, such reforms should occur as soon as possible to ensure compliance of the legislation and functioning of the national security system of Ukraine with NATO standards and principles; creation of an effective rule of law system; strengthening national guarantees of independence; the development of effective international comprehensive cooperation, in particular through the use of interdepartmental cooperation, as well as the mandatory increase in the effectiveness of the functioning and performance of the functions assigned to them by the security bodies, as well as the speedy improvement of the tools and means of their interaction with each other and with other components of the national security and defence sector of Ukraine. In this regard, the author considers it expedient to consider the principles applied in NATO member countries and the main ways of financing NATO’s defence costs. Such an analysis will not only provide an opportunity for effective international support to our country in the process of military operations, but will also be useful for the purpose of determining the next main steps to bring Ukraine’s defence sector financing system into line with international standards and principles.
