JEF is a UK-led defense cooperation format whose primary task is rapid response at sea, on land, and in the air in the Baltic Sea, Northern Europe, and in the High North.
The coalition is a first responder before NATO. It is comprised of like-minded nations ready to contribute quickly and flexibly to various operations, from humanitarian crises to conventional warfare.
