NATO şi Politica Europeană de Securitate şi Apărare
NATO and the European Security and Protection Politics

Summary/Abstract: Defence and security fields in Europe and North America evolved starting with the ‘90s influenced by the rising new threats to security and multiplying of old ones. NATO has been playing a major part in reducing the security threats to its member countries and in promoting international stability and security. At the end of the ‘90s EU also has started developing its own defence and security dimension as a reaction to immediate or longer term threats and as a means of consolidating its economic and political stance on the international arena. Since NATO and ESDP share common areas of action - defence and security – and members, a quest for synergies have started ever since EU launched its policy in this field. The fluid nature of threats, the increasing interdependencies highlight that the interests of both organisations and of their members is to build upon institutional convergences and avoid competition.
