ADRIATIC CHARTER, INTEGRATION IN NATO – AN ILLUSION OR REALITY

Today the events has begun to change the focus from the conflicts of East-West since the period of the Cold War on the challenges and new opportunities of the 21st century, challenges and opportunities that are too large, linked to the Mediterranean and more broader than the Middle East.

Some of these challenges include violent extremism, terrorism, proliferation of nuclear weapons and missiles, failed states, cyber-attack, and lack of security for energy resources. But the opportunities on the other hand are numerous: opportunities for partnerships, other forms of engagement, working opportunities with people in these regions to help them in their effort to look for the same goods from a more global place: stability, self-determination, rule of law and prosperity.
