Kaja Kallas said the EU has used Article 42.7 once and is testing how it would work alongside NATO in three attack scenarios.

Summary
The EU's mutual assistance clause is unambiguous, French President ​Emmanuel Macron said on Saturday, after the bloc's leaders ‌asked officials to prepare a blueprint for how it would work amid doubts over Washington's commitment to NATO. President Donald Trump's criticism of NATO for failing ​to back the U.S. in the war with Iran ​and his threats earlier this year to seize Greenland ⁠from Denmark have created urgency in the European Union to ​define the mutual assistance provisions.
