In this playlist: Issues of Contemporary Politics I deal with current events and here specifically I discuss the main takeaway from the recent NATO summit in Washington. As always I prefer a long term historical perspective. The NATO declaration and its announced goals and claims is subjected here to critical analysis and I venture to disprove the validity of these claims and unattainability of these goals.
