The flawed logic of NATO expansion
Article Abstract:
The common opinion prevalent among the American foreign policy establishment that the NATO should necessarily expand into Central Europe is misguided. The expansion of NATO should be a gradual process, unenforced and should provide military assistance to the central European countries. The fact that Russians might prove to be a threat later on is true but steps taken to maintain consensus within the alliance can avert this.

Can containment work again?
Article Abstract:
The East Central Europe faces many problems which are fundamentally different from those that affected Europe after the Second World War, thereby enabling the NATO to function again. The ideological and military questions do not concern Europe now and the only two existing institutions, the European Union and the NATO, show that the new democracies have to be embraced.

NATO's mixed signals in the Caucasus and Central Asia
Article Abstract:
The expansion of NATO in the Caucasus and Central Asia could cause potential problems because of a lack of collective political guidance. There is confusion between national policies and those of NATO giving rise to concern that such vagueness is detrimental to all parties and could give rise to aggressive conflict.
