He believes NATO expansion has gone far enough. The core concept of this new security architecture would be one of permanent neutrality. The countries in question collectively make a broken-up arc, from Europe's far north to its south: Finland and Sweden; Ukraine, Moldova, and Belarus; Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan; and finally Cyprus plus Serbia, as well as possibly several other Balkan states. Discussion on the new framework should begin within NATO, followed by deliberation with the neutral countries themselves, and then formal negotiations with Russia. The new security architecture would require that Russia, like NATO, commit to help uphold the security of Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova, and other states in the region. Russia would have to withdraw its troops from those countries in a verifiable manner; after that, corresponding sanctions on Russia would be lifted. The neutral countries would retain their rights to participate in multilateral security operations on a scale comparable to what has been the case in the past, including even those operations that might be led by NATO. They could think of and describe themselves as Western states (or anything else, for that matter). If the European Union and they so wished in the future, they could join the EU. They would have complete sovereignty and self-determination in every sense of the word. But NATO would decide not to invite them into the alliance as members. Ideally, these nations would endorse and promote this concept themselves as a more practical way to ensure their security than the current situation or any other plausible alternative. 610 20 $a North Atlantic Treaty Organization. 610 27 $a North Atlantic Treaty Organization. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00529467 650 0 $a National security $z Europe, Eastern. 650 0 $a Neutrality $z Europe, Eastern. 651 0 $a Europe, Eastern $x Military relations $z Russia (Federation) 651 0 $a Russia (Federation) $x Military relations $z Europe, Eastern. 651 0 $a Europe, Eastern $x Military policy. 650 7 $a Military policy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01021386 650 7 $a Military relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01353799 650 7 $a National security. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01033711 650 7 $a Neutrality. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01036590 651 7 $a Europe, Eastern. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01245079 651 7 $a Russia (Federation) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01262050 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE / International Relations / Treaties. $2 bisacsh 830 0 $a Marshall papers. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231021022334.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8FF4E4F4580511E8A8F83C5097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
