NATO’s Nuclear Puzzle
Języki publikacji
Abstrakty
This article analyses three challanges facing NATO’s nuclear policy. First, the political obligation to strive for transparency and increase confidence regarding tactical nuclear weapons in reciprocity with Russia. Second, the technological need to ensure safety, security and effectivity of nuclear deterrence capabilities deployed in Europe. Third, the reversion of the debate over the utility of the B61 on the Old Continent. The 2014 annexation of Crimea by Russia and a hybrid war led in Eastern Ukraine have resulted in a significant erosion in relations between NATO and Russia. This in turn complicates any further moves to create conditions for a future elimination of tactical nuclear weapons from Europe. At the same time, NATO member states should consider building upon transparency and confidencebuilding measures on tactical nuclear weapons as a complimentary way to overcome the current political stalemate.
