COMCASA- Communication Compatibility and Security Arrangements. It is one of the three foundational defence pacts that is required to be signed by a country willing to acquire high tech military hardware from USA. (Other being LEMOA and BECA)COMCASA is essentially a legal framework that facilitates transfer of encrypted communication system that enhances interoperability between the forces and military hardware of two countries.Simply put, Soldiers or millitary officials operating a weapon system communicate with each other and with their central command through sophisticated encrypted technology(COMSEC) as the conversation and directions have to be confidential owning to security risks. It is essentially in the form of “codes” and “keys”.COMCASA lays down the terms and conditions for switching to USA based security communication platform to be used with US defence equipments transferred to other countries.It has been in NEWS in India recently as India is considering signing COMCASA with USA. At present, India uses a locally sourced platform for secured communications between different weapons systems including the ones acquired from USA. It is like using a windows software in a Macbook.By signing COMCASA it will have to switch to USA provided platform for confidential communication which is supposedly more secure than the current system in use and better suited to US millitary hardware. However, there are various apprehensions from Indian side regarding the terms and conditions of the agreement.

The UK vaccine approval process is available to all EU member states.The EU member states have taken a collective approach using the EMA. The UK has used EU rules to take a national approach. Both have merits.The UK government and EU’s European Commission are in talks on their future relationship. This will lead to a trade & security agreement. The agreement will allow preferential access to each others’ market - with terms and conditions preventing and remedying unfair competition.

I think so.“The EU is a very skilled negotiator... they've negotiated agreements with many countries. They are very skilled and very disciplined in the way they carry out their negotiation..”Philip Hammond, UK Cancellor of the Exchequer, 7 March 2018I think that EU Commission chief negotiator Michel Barnier has made a calculation. Theresa May and her ministers will capitulate on everything, the negotiating ratchet is too powerful. He wants UK-wide EEA membership PLUS customs union and appears to think he can get it. If not, Northern Ireland has to be hived off - perhaps through a border poll paving the way for Irish reunification.The UK government have made insufficient preparations to leave the EU without replacement treaty cover - scheduled to occur on 29 March 2019. If the UK government turns down an EU offer to extend the Article 50 deadline, they risk losing the transition period offer. A withdrawal agreement is contingent on resolving the wording of the Northern Ireland backstop option. Leaving the EU within nothing next March, risks UK voters’ dissent, unrest and panic.The EU have all the cards. The EU uses process, deadlines and pressure points to apply negotiating leverage. Witness the Northern Ireland backstop. In an embarrassing effort to secure agreement to move talks to future trade, Mrs May and her ministers agreed to a December 2017 diplomatic fudge on the Irish border. The wording was vague, but the EU Commission have since interpreted the agreement to mean that backstop applies to Northern Ireland only.This leaves the UK government with a choice: agree to the EU terms and conditions or leave with nothing.Meanwhile, in 281 days’ time, all EU treaties are going to automatically cease to apply to the UK.Thank you for your requested answer User-9997781838787908304.
