“NATO’s biggest achievement was surviving the Cold War”NATO was the major alliance left standing, while the Warsaw pact disintegrated and some of America’s other alliances also collapsed, said Stanley Kober, research fellow at the Washington-based CATO Institute. |
I took part in the German peace movement 1979-1992, and I am quite happy with Russia listening to concerns of Europe and U.S. again! My wish would be NATO and Russia would combine forces to foster real democracy in countries like Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaydshan, or Turkmenistan. I think Russia and NATO could join to monitor elections in these countries. And I am sure Russia should help to prevent a war between Israel and Iran (Russia and U.S. should talk about that!).
