Abstract

NATO Summit in Bucharest marks the starting point for creation of the new strategic concept which needs to answer following question: how will Alliance act in the 21st century? The key element in this process is achieving redefinition of transatlantic relations between USA and European allies. EU and NATO cooperation in stabilizing the broader European area, from which direct security threats for Europe and indirectly for USA emerge, could serve as a catalyst of the process.

Keywords
