National Security and Defence

Safety is a necessity, an aspiration, and an inalienable right of the human being. Understanding Security is always a sense of guarantee, protection, or tranquillity in the face of obstacles and threats, actions contrary to the person, institutions, or essential goods, existing or intended.

Concerning the Common Good, Security is an indispensable element in seeking the closest possible approximation to those ideal, thanks to the degree of assurance it must provide.

The State bears the most significant responsibility for the safety of all, as it must and may demand the fulfilment of the duties and functions necessary to maintain this condition.

One of the most challenging problems that the leaders of a nation face is to strike the right balance between the obligations and responsibilities of the State - aimed at the collective interest and the monopoly of the legitimate use of force - and those of the citizen, the possessor of a inalienable rights and, on the other hand, subordinate to the legal order of the rule of law. In the outer sphere, as well as in the domestic area, the aspiration for the Security of nations is constant.
