INF sporazum i sigurnost na Mediteranu: scenarij za novu nuklearizaciju?
The INF Agreement and Security in the Mediterranean: Scenario for Re-Nuclearization?

Summary/Abstract: The agreement on the removal and destruction of Soviet and American medium — and short-range missiles (INF agreement) of December 1987 ought to be evaluated in the light of the superpowers real military and political interests. A substitution of the nuclear weapons comprised in the Agreement for the purpose of Western defence will take place in three ways: through strengthening NATO's conventional forces, through modernizing tactical nuclear weapons, and through nuclear armament outside the American central arsenal. The Mediterranean area might become a zone of renewed nuclearization as a substitute for the armament outlawed by the INF agreement. Missiles with nuclear warheads might become standard weapons on American ships in the Mediterranean. A Soviet answer to this would not be slow in coming irrespectively of initiatives for peace and negotiations.
