assurance of well- coordinated measures between various agencies of the national<br />

security system. This also means that the Slovenian Armed Forces should have an<br />

important role in countering terrorism.<br />

The Slovenian memberships in NATO and security regulations in the alliance,<br />

which have to be met by the member states, require efficiently regulated<br />

counterterrorism activities. Recently, new factors have occurred which caused<br />

radical changes in the global security environment, and this also has implications<br />

on what I mentioned earlier. This is the reason why we have to put all efforts into<br />

building an efficient system in the Slovenian Armed Forces. This system should be<br />

capable of conducting all needed protection measures for personnel and units, and<br />

facilitate efficient exchanging of information and analyses which are going to help<br />

commanders to take right decisions in realistic operations.<br />

We have to be aware of threats which have been brought in the national security<br />

system because of the changing security situation in the world. Politically, socially,<br />

economically and ecologically unstable areas, terrorist organizations, international<br />

organized crime, mass migrations and illegal proliferation of WMD will be the<br />

main sources of threat to security in the future. Terrorism and illegal proliferation of<br />

WMD have lately been main threats among the so-called international threats. All<br />

responsible personnel in the Slovenian Armed Forces have to actively cooperate in<br />

the process of planning of counterterorrism measures. The Slovenian Armed Forces<br />

have to be prepared to new challenges because of the rapidly changing security<br />

environment. These challenges have to answered and give new operational dimension<br />

to the Slovenian armed forces so that they are capable of rapid intervention in crisis<br />

situation, building the capacity for quick deployment of their forces to the crisis area,<br />

maintaining sustainability, independence and efficient executing of their tasks and<br />

a variety of operations, maintaining a proper level of force protection and at last,<br />

capable of long-term operation in the execution of different tasks.<br />
