The European Union is one of the main anti-piracy actors in the Gulf of Guinea (GoG). At any one time, the EU has on average 30 owned or flagged vessels in the region. The piracy in the Gulf of Guinea is therefore a threat towards the EU, and as a response the organization adopted its strategy on the Gulf of Guinea in March 2014. The Strategy on the Gulf of Guinea is a 12-page document with the scope of the problem, what have previously been done, responses and the way forward with four strategic objectives.

  • The European Union is one of the main anti-piracy actors in the Gulf of Guinea (GoG). At any one time, the EU has on average 30 owned or flagged vessels in the region. The piracy in the Gulf of Guinea is therefore a threat towards the EU, and as a response the organization adopted its strategy on the Gulf of Guinea in March 2014. The Strategy on the Gulf of Guinea is a 12-page document with the scope of the problem, what have previously been done, responses and the way forward with four strategic objectives. The EU's overriding objective are: 1. * to build a common understanding in regional countries of the threat and its long-term effect and the need to address the piracy issues among the regional and international community. 2. * to help the governments in the region to ensure maritime awareness, security and the rule of law by building robust institutions and maritime administrations. 3. * to assist vulnerable economies to withstand criminal or violent activity and to build resilience to communities. 4. * to strengthen cooperation between the countries and organizations on the region to fight threats both on land and sea. The main focus of the European Union's initiatives to fight piracy in Gulf of Guinea and illegal maritime activities is to address the root causes rather than taking a military approach as they did with the piracy off the coast of Somalia. The EU are addressing the root causes by supporting local and regional actions to reduce and hinder piracy and other illegal maritime activities. One of the most important supporting's are the Yaoundé Code of Conduct and capacity building in terms of knowledge, skills, training and equipment for information sharing across the borders. Even though the EU do not have a naval force in the GoG, some member states have military vessels and exercises with different countries in the region to fight piracy. (en)
