This article makes a brief analysis of the sustainable development goals that are applicable in the military organization and identifies, through the literature-review method, the main ways in which the military organization was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on the evolution of military spending. The ultimate goal is to establish how the pandemic has influenced the implementation of sustainable development goals in the military organization, in order to provide strategic management with recommendations to increase the resilience and sustainability of the military organization. The main conclusion of this research is that the pandemic did not have a significant impact in the short term, but in the medium and long term the situation may change, which calls for adaptation, cooperation, coordination and caution in the configuration of defence spending. As a secondary conclusion, it can be considered that the pandemic can have an accelerating effect on sustainable development policies, the military organization being called to benefit from the identified lessons and new opportunities, in order to increase the response capacity.

Prezentul a Prezentul articol realizează o scurtă analiză a obiectivelor dezvoltării durabile cu aplicabilitate în organizația militară și identifică, prin metoda analizei documentelor, principalele modalități în care organizația militară a fost afectată de pandemia de COVID-19, cu accent pe evoluția cheltuielilor militare. Scopul final este stabilirea modului în care pandemia a influențat implementarea obiectivelor dezvoltării durabile în organizația militară, pentru a oferi managementului strategic recomandări în sensul sporirii rezilienței și sustenabilității organizației militare. Principala concluzie a prezentului demers de cercetare este că pandemia nu a avut un impact semnificativ pe termen scurt, însă pe termen mediu și lung, situația se poate schimba, fapt ce îndeamnă la adaptare, cooperare, coordonare și prudență în configurarea cheltuielilor de apărare. Drept concluzie secundară, se poate considera că pandemia poate avea un efect accelerator asupra politicilor de dezvoltare durabilă, organizația militară fiind chemată să beneficieze de lecțiile identificate și de oportunitățile ivite, în scopul sporirii capacității de reacție.

In the context of an enhanced competition and of the need to reach the highest objective represented by obtaining the competitive advantage, the following initiatives appeared gradually into the production sector and were implemented into the military scope, in order to gain superiority over possible opponents and to successfully accomplish the missions: Lean Logistics, Procurement Logistics, Distribution Logistics, Six Sigma Logistics, Green Logistics, Emergency/Humanitarian Logistics, Global Logistics, Reverse Logistics and Digital Logistics. Two of these captured my attention considering the effects produced in military logistics of our times, which will continue to generate changes into the future.

The US military presence in Afghanistan has been the subject of retrospective analyzes that facilitated the identification and learning of important lessons for future military actions. This article analyses, through the case study method, the way defense resources were managed from a sustainable development perspective, focusing on the durable effects of the main projects aimed at ensuring this country's initial steps towards a sustainable development destination. As a result, this study points to the positive potential that the military instrument could have in a country's efforts to achieve sustainable development goals, highlighting the way that unsustainable management practices can compromise or even nullify the progress in this area. Consequently, the main product of this research is a model of unsustainable use of defense resources that decision makers should know and avoid in the future, to obtain long-term beneficial results.
