This Month in CQ Global Researcher

This month in CQ Global Researcher the topic is the Future of NATO by Roland Flamini.

Is the transatlantic alliance obsolete?

During the Cold War, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) was the West’s line of defense against possible Soviet aggression. But the end of the Soviet Union in 1991 and the disappearance of NATO’s communist equivalent – the Warsaw Pact – raised doubts about NATO’s relevance.

Some of the issues discussed and explored this month are
  • Is NATO obsolete?
  • Should energy security become a new NATO responsibility?
  • Can NATO effectively address international terrorism?
