Summary/Abstract: Within OSCE, threats and conflicts are in a permanent transformation, their nature being very diverse. The tools used by the organisation to solve the conflicts and potential conflicts are numerous. We can see very clearly that the low efficiency of the own approaches derives from the tasks extension and the restriction of financial possibilities and also from the obstruction of some member states through their right of veto in adopting important decisions. The new OSCE activity demands a more determined action and involvement of the OSCE states especially the big ones, efforts to strengthen the organisation, to enlarge the cooperation of the security organisations, more determined approaches to permanently use means politically coordinated by all member states, as stipulated in the European Security Charter.
