NATO Enlargement: A Russian Perspective

Abstract

Seven consequences of NATO enlargement: deepening of the gap between Russian and Western civilization; an inward reorientation of Russia; a rebirth of the Russian sphere of influence among the former states of the Soviet Union; a weakening of overall European security; a threat to the security structure already established after the end of the Cold War; an unwelcome influence on internal Russian politics; encouragement of a new militarism in Russia.
