După un an. Summit-ul din Ţara Galilor, adaptarea NATO şi dinamica strategică a Europei Centrale
One year after. The Wales Summit, the NATO adaptation and strategic dynamics of Central Europe

Summary/Abstract: NATO summit in Wales of September 2015 played an important role in re-shaping the overall strategic configuration of the North-Atlantic Alliance so that to answer to the emerging geopolitical dynamics generated by Russia’ s revisionist policy in Eastern Europe. Two major themes dominated NATO agenda: firstly, the need to reassure the Eastern allies and strengthen the defence potential of the Central European states, and, secondly, to restructure the framework of relations with Russia. In a general perspective, Wales summit failed to became an historical moment since the outcome was rather a compromise between the need for deeper engagement towards the Eastern allies and the imperative of preserving the strategic balance in Europe, meaning to avoid a systemic rift with Moscow. The 2016 NATO summit in Warsaw will have to find an answer to this complicated and challenging compromise which is to highly define NATO future strategic posture in the 21st century.
