The Implications of the Ukraine Crisis For NATO’s Solidarity Cooparative Security and Collective Defence

Summary/Abstract: This study aims to evaluate the implications of the Ukraine crisis about NATO, which is fundamentally a defensive alliance. This article discusses the Ukraine crisis as a problem in which NATO’s deterrence function, which is vital for NATO to persist as a strong alliance, has been tested in the context of its relations with the Russian Federation.The tension following the Ukraine crisis may affect the ranking of priorities among NATO’s fundamental tasks, which may also disrupt cooperative security, one of NATO’s three essential core tasks. This article analyzes the Ukraine crisis and the violation of NATO’s member states’ air spaces within the scope of Russia’s military presence in Syria as examples, which NATO’s solidarity and its deterrence capability have been tested. It evaluates NATO’s attitude about these issues to claim that Russia, which had sanctions imposed on it by NATO and the EU after the Ukrainian crisis, aims to transform the different attitudes towards Russia among NATO’s European members into a political fracture. Whether this aim will be fulfilled or not depends on the level of solidarity among NATO countries.
