Summary/Abstract: At Chicago NATO Summit, held on the 20th –the 21st of May 2012, it was declared the end of the first operational phase of the NATO missile shield in Europe. There are two NATO countries, Romania and Turkey, countries located in the Black Sea region which will host the NATO missile shield elements, this project is to be operationalized by 2020. The Russian Federation did not sign an agreement with the U.S. about the missile shield and I consider that the NATO missile shield affects its strategic and security interests. The existence of several frozen conflicts in the Black Sea region, the U.S., NATO, EU and the Russian Federation interests at the regional level, plus the arrival of the first military capabilities of the missile shield, will generate a new dynamics of the military security in Black Sea Region.
