With sovereignty now secure, the recent decision to send troops to Iraq to participate in the US-led Iraq stabilisation force could prove an important milestone in helping to shape a new national identity and international role - more precisely, an evolving but distinctly European identity in
conjunction with a role that looks beyond the borders of the European Union.
