В статье, автор знакомит читателя с историей создания Северо-Атлантического альянса (НАТО), идеологическими и политическими угрозами того времени для стран Западной Европы, что нашло свое отражение в создании общей системы коллективной безопасности в 1949 году. В то время Советский Союз рассматривался ведущими странами НАТО как основная угроза свободе и независимости Западной Европе. Советская идеология, политические цели и методы, военная мощь не исключали возможности вооруженного конфликта. Таким образом период с 1949 года до конца 1980-х годов известен как «холодная война» в ходе которой главной задачей Альянса было обеспечение соответствующего уровня оборонных возможностей стран-членов НАТО против какой либо формы агрессии со стороны Советского Союза и стран Варшавского Договора. Стабильность, обеспеченная НАТО в ходе этого периода, дала возможность Западной Европе достичь процветания, экономического роста и доверия между странами. Альянс обеспечивал индивидуальные права каждого государства и их международные обязательства на основе Хартии Организации Объединенных Наций. Сегодня страны НАТО считают, что их достижения в области коллективной безопасности и сотрудничества, достигнутые при помощи Альянса, наилучшим образом гарантируют их безопасность. В наше время, коллективная оборона не потеряла своего значения и стала более масштабной, включая в себя диалог и практическое сотрудничество с другими странами, не являющимися членами НАТО, что является лучшим средством Евро-Атлантической безопасности.

Далее автор рассматривает цели и задачи НАТО в области безопасности в соответствии с Хартией ООН.

Угроза войны в Европе виртуально исчезла, однако страны-члены НАТО и другие страны Евро-Атлантического региона стоят перед лицом других рисков и неопределенностей, включающих в себя этнические конфликты, нарушения прав человека, политическую нестабильность, развал экономики, распространение оружия массового поражения и средств его доставки, что вызывает серьезную обеспокоенность. Перед Альянсом встают вопросы глобального характера такие как акты терроризма, саботажа, организованной преступности и нарушение потоков жизненно важных ресурсов.

Немаловажным фактором в достижении безопасности Грузии являлось ее участие в Северо-атлантическом совете по сотрудничеству (NACC), где на основе партнерских отношений работал механизм, обеспечивающий ее независимость, государственный суверенитет и помогающий установлению более тесных взаимоотношений с НАТО. Благодаря этому сотрудничеству Грузия имела возможность ознакомиться с богатым военно-политическим и научно-экономическим опытом Альянса, что помогало ей перестроиться в соответствии с современными западными стандартами. Это был первый реальный шаг Грузии в сближении с НАТО и начале сотрудничества с Альянсом. Сегодня (с 1997 года) это Северо-Атлантический совет по партнерству (ЕАРС), где Грузия принимает регулярное участие в консультациях по вопросам безопасности и обороны, активно взаимодействует при проведении совместных учений и миротворческих операций под руководством НАТО, что дает новый, более оперативный импульс программе «Партнерство во имя мира», обеспечивая участие стран-партнеров в вопросах принятия решений и планировании деятельности партнеров. Грузия была первой страной постсоветского пространства, которая официально присоединилась к программе «Партнерство во имя мира» в 1994 году.

Грузия надеется быть приглашенной в НАТО, но для этого надо пройти долгий путь, для этого надо прежде всего определиться, почему Грузия нуждается во вступлении в НАТО и нужно ли ей это? Одной из перспектив вступления Грузии в НАТО является альтернативный вариант обеспечения самообороны относительно гегемонии России и помощь в решении проблем терроризма, нелегального трафика военного имущества и оружия , контрабанды и наркобизнеса и т.п. После вступления в НАТО стандарты жизненного уровня в Грузии улучшаться, что даст реальный базис для интеграции в Евро-Атлантическое пространство, экономические и социальные условия жизни также возрастут. В качестве политического фактора, членство в НАТО усилит демократические ценности в данной стране. Но для вступления в Альянс необходимо решить проблему двух замороженных конфликтов в регионе и после вступления НАТО будет гарантировать территориальную целостность и суверенитет Грузии.

Основным приоритетом внешней политики Грузии является содействие интеграционному процессу с НАТО. Это значительно улучшит окружающую среду безопасности и обеспечит стабильность в Черноморском регионе. Региональная стабильность и безопасность на Кавказе очень важны для Евро-Атлантического пространства, учитывая близость к Среднему Востоку и глобальные энергетические проблемы. Будучи членом НАТО, Грузия будет более активно участвовать в улучшении региональной безопасности и в операциях по поддержанию мира за рубежом.

Активное участие грузинского военного контингента в Ираке, а также в операциях НАТО в Косове и Афганистане имеет практические политические и военные результаты.

Индивидуальный план партнерства (IPAP) дает новый механизм для сотрудничества Грузии с НАТО. Грузия была первой страной, с кем НАТО начало сотрудничество в рамках IPAP в 2004 году. Этот план был рассчитан на 2 года, и помог стране достичь позитивных результатов в проведении внутренних реформ, четко определял цели и приоритеты партнерства, что помогало также странам-членам НАТО устанавливать двусторонние связи со странами-партнерами.

Цели, достигнутые в рамках IPAP, включали в себя общие категории вопросов политики и безопасности.

После достижения целей IPAP был принят План членства в НАТО (МАР), что является последним шагом перед вступлением в НАТО. План предусматривает обеспечение совещательной и практической поддержки по всем аспектам членства в НАТО. Участие в МАР не гарантирует будущее членство в НАТО, но тем не менее, оно дает возможность странам, которые готовятся к этому, сверять свою подготовку с целями и приоритетами данного плана. В настоящее время, Грузия не в полной мере отвечает требованиям этого плана: два замороженных конфликта, которые годами имеют место на территории Грузии и до сих пор не разрешены, переход к рыночной экономике пока еще не закончен из-за множества экономических проблем и наличия серьезных проблем с контрабандой, высоким уровнем коррупции и безработицы, наркобизнесом, нестабильным политическим окружением, проблемами беженцев, продолжающимися спорами с Россией и т.п.

Честно говоря Грузия и сегодня не имеет возможности соответствовать требованиям МАР и также в ближайшем будущем.

Исходя из создавшейся ситуации автор предлагает следующие пути решения проблемы. Грузия должна соответствовать требованиям IPAP и МАР и только после этого она может иметь шанс стать членом НАТО.

Власти Грузии должны улучшить экономическую ситуацию в стране, увеличить зарплаты и пенсии, постараться установить мирные взаимоотношения с соседними странами, особенно необходимо достижение диалога с Россией, стабилизировать политическую и экономическую окружающую среду, все министерства должны спланировать имплиментационные процессы плана действий, прозрачность которого продолжает быть насущной для общества, частота встреч на правительственном уровне на конференциях, семинарах должна возрастать и достигать практических результатов, и только после успешного решения этих задач страна будет иметь возможность соответствовать стандартам НАТО.

Alliance Origins:

In the aftermath of the Second World War, Eastern and Western Europe found themselves separated by the ideological and political divisions of the Cold War. The expansion of the Soviet Union became a real threat for the Western countries. Eastern Europe fell under the domination of the Soviet Union. Between 1947 and 1949 a series of dramatic political events brought matters to a head. These included direct threats to the sovereignty of Norway, Greece, Turkey and other Western European countries, the June 1948 coup in Czechoslovakia, and the illegal blockade of Berlin which began in April of the same year. The signature of Brussels Treaty of March 1948 marked the determination of five Western European countries - Belgium, France, Luxemburg, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom – to develop a common defense system and to strengthen the ties between them in a manner which would enable them to resist ideological, political and military threats to their security. In 1949, 12 countries from both sides of the Atlantic formed the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) to counter the risk that the Soviet Union would seek to extend its control of Eastern Europe to other parts of the continents. Between 1947 and 1952, the Marshal Plan afforded the means of stabilizing Western European economies. NATO’s role as a political and military alliance was to provide for collective defense against any form of aggression and to maintain a secure environment for the development of democracy and economic growth. In the words of the then US President Harry S. Truman, the Marshal Plan and NATO were “two halves of the same walnut”.

The founding members of NATO – Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Iceland, Italy, Luxemburg, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, the United Kingdom and the United States – committed themselves to come to each other’s defense in the event of military aggression against any of them, it is because when the Alliance was founded in 1949, the Soviet Union was seen as the main threat to the freedom and independency of the Western Europe. Soviet ideology, political aims and methods and military capacity meant that, whatever the Soviet Union’s real intentions may have been, no Western government could afford to ignore the possibility of conflict. In 1952, Greece and Turkey acceded to the Treaty, the Federal Republic of Germany joined the Alliance in 1955 and, in 1982, Spain also became a member of NATO. As a result, from 1949 to the end of the 1980s – the period known as the Cold War- the Alliance’s main task was to maintain sufficient military capabilities to defend its members against any form of aggression by the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact. The stability provided by NATO during this period enabled Western Europe as a whole to rebuild its prosperity after the Second World War, creating the confidence and predictability that are essential prerequisites for economic growth.

The North Atlantic Alliance was founded on the basis of a treaty between member states entered into freely by each of them after public debate and due parliamentary process. The treaty upholds their individual rights as well as their international obligations in accordance with the Charter of the United Nations. It commits each member country to sharing the risks and responsibilities as well as the benefits of collective security and requires of each of them the undertaking not to enter into any other international commitment which might conflict with the treaty.

The policies agreed by NATO member countries have evolved continuously in the light of the changing political situation over the past 50 years. For many years, the basic security situation did not change much; however, since the end of the Cold War, Alliance policies and structure have been fundamentally transformed. During the Cold War, NATO’s role and purpose were clearly defined by the existence of the threat posed by the Soviet Union. By the early 1990s, the Warsaw Pact had been dissolved at the insistence of the newly liberated countries of Eastern Europe, and the Soviet Union had collapsed. With the disappearance of traditional adversaries, some believed that the need for NATO had also been removed and that future expenditure and investment in Armed Forces could be dramatically reduced. But it soon became apparent that although the end of the Cold War might have removed the threat of military invasion, instability in some parts of Europe had increased. A number of regional conflicts, often fuelled by ethnic tensions, broke out in the former Yugoslavia and in parts of the former Soviet Union and threatened to spread. NATO countries rapidly came to the conclusion that their commitment to collective defense and the cooperation achieved through NATO continued to provide the best guarantee of their security. In today’s world, the concept of defense, though no less important, has been broadened to include dialogue and practical cooperation with other nations outside the Alliance as the best means of safeguarding Euro-Atlantic security.

Alliance Purpose and Fundamental Security Tasks:

The essential purpose of the North Atlantic Alliance is to safeguard the freedom and security of all its members in Europe and North America in accordance with the principles of the United Nations Charter. To achieve this, the Alliance deploys and uses both its political influence and its military capacity, depending on the nature of the security challenges facing Alliance member states.

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is the structure through which Alliance members implement their security goals. It is an intergovernmental organization in which member countries retain their full sovereignty and independence and serves as a forum in which they consult together and take decisions on matters affecting their security. NATO’s structures facilitate continuous consultation, coordination and cooperation between members on political, military, economic and other aspects of security, as well as cooperation in non military fields such as science, the environment and disaster relief.

The Alliance works on the principle that the security of each member country depends on the security of them all. If the security of any one is threatened, all are affected. In signing the Washington Treaty, NATO’s founding charter, in 1949, every member state made a commitment to each other to respect this principle, sharing the risks and responsibilities as well as advantages of common defense. This also meant that many aspects of the defense planning and preparations that each country had previously undertaken alone would in future be undertaken together. Each country remained independent and free to make its own decisions, but by planning together and sharing resources, they could enjoy collectively a level of security far higher than any could achieve alone. This remains the fundamental principle of security cooperation within NATO.

NATO’s current Strategic Concept, published in 1999, describes the security risks faced by the Alliance as “multi-directional and difficult to predict”. NATO’s fundamental security tasks are defined as:

1. Acting as a foundation of stability in the Euro-Atlantic area;
2. Serving as a forum for consultation on security issues;
3. Deterring and defending against any threat of aggression against any NATO member state;
4. Contributing to effective conflict prevention and engaging actively in crisis management; and
5. Promoting wide-ranging partnership, cooperation and dialogue with other countries in the Euro-Atlantic area.

The threat of war in Europe has virtually disappeared, but Alliance members and other countries in Euro-Atlantic region face other risks and uncertainties, including ethnic conflict, the abuse of human rights, political instability and economic fragility. In addition, the proliferation of nuclear, biological and chemical weapons and their means of delivery is a matter of serious concern. Moreover, Alliance undertakes the issues of global context, including the acts of terrorism, sabotage, organized crimes and the disruption of the flow of vital resources. Since the publication of the 1999 Strategic Concept and in the wake of the attacks on New York and Washington of 11 September 2001, the threat from terrorism is being fundamentally re-evaluated.

Security through Partnership- North Atlantic Cooperation Council (NACC)

The establishment of the North Atlantic Cooperation Council (NACC) in December 1991 brought together the member countries of NATO, and initially, nine Central and Eastern European countries, in a new consultative forum. In March 1992, participation in the NACC was expanded to include all members of the commonwealth of Independent States and by June 1992, Georgia and Albania had also become the members.

The inaugural meeting of NACC took place on 20 December 1991, just as the Soviet Union was ceasing to exist. Simultaneously, 11 former Soviet republics became the members of the new Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), entering a period of intense political and economic transformation.

Participating in the activities of NACC for Georgia, which just gained its independence, was one of the most important international mechanisms to keep the state sovereignty. Moreover, being a member of the NACC and having close relations with NATO gave Georgia an opportunity to be acquainted with the rich political-military and scientific-economic experience of the Alliance, which would help the rebuilding of Georgia in accordance with the modern Western standards. So, membership with NACC was the first real steps for Georgia to get close to NATO. The representative of Georgia, T. Kitovani (Minister of Defense) firstly took part in the meeting of the NACC on April 1 of 1992. And Georgia became the member of this organization on June 5 of 1992 at the NACC member state Foreign Ministers’ meeting in Oslo. So, we can call this date as the starting day of cooperation with NATO.

The Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council (EAPC)

Today, NATO and Partner countries regularly consult on security and defense-related issues in the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council (EAPC), which succeeded the NACC in 1997. It brings together the 19 Allies and 27 Partners in a forum providing for regular consultation and cooperation. It meets periodically at the level of Ambassadors and Foreign and Defense Ministers. The forces of NATO and Partner countries interact frequently and conduct joint exercises, and their soldiers are deployed alongside each other in the NATO led peacekeeping operations. The establishment of EAPC complemented steps taken in parallel to enhance the role of the Partnership for Peace and give it more operational focus. The aim was to increase the involvement of Partner countries in decision-making and planning across the entire scope of partnership activities.

The Partnership for Peace:

One of the most remarkable international achievements in the field of security in the last ten years has been the Partnership for Peace (PfP) Program. It was introduced by NATO at the January 1994 Brussels Summit Meeting of the North Atlantic Council. The aim of the Partnership is to enhance stability and security throughout Europe. The essence of the PfP program is the partnership formed individually between each Partner country and NATO, tailored to individual needs and jointly implemented at the level and pace chosen by each participating government.

All members of PfP are also members of the euro-Atlantic Partnership Council (EAPC) which provides the overall framework for cooperation between NATO and its Partner countries. Any country wishing to join for Partnership for Peace is first invited to sign the Framework Document. In addition to describing the objectives of the Partnership, this describes the basic principles on which PfP is founded. After signing the Framework Document, the next step in the procedure is to submit Presentation Document to NATO. Based on the statements made in the Presentation Documents an Individual Partnership Program (IPP) is jointly developed and agreed. This covers a two year period. The IPP contains statements of the political aims of the Partner in PfP, the military and other assets to be made available for PfP purposes. Cooperation focuses on defense-related work but goes far beyond dialogue and consultation to include practical cooperation that touches on virtually every field of NATO activity. The Work Program offers activities in over twenty areas ranging from defense policy and planning, civil-military relations, education and training, to air defense, communications and information systems, crisis management, and civil emergency planning.

On March 23 of 1994, Georgia was the first from the Post Soviet countries to join the PfP officially.

NATO and Georgia Today.

Being Member of NATO?

In theory, any European country could join NATO. Article 10 of the Washington Treaty allows existing members to invite “any European State in a position to further the principles of this Treaty and to contribute to the security of the North Atlantic area” to become a member. Indeed, NATO’s 12 founding members have grown to 19 today after four rounds of enlargement which brought in Greece and Turkey in 1952, the Federal Republic of Germany in 1955, Spain in 1982 and the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland in 1999. A further ten countries are hoping to be invited to join the Alliance in the near future.

Georgia is also hoping to be invited to join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, but in order to reach this Georgia has a long way to go. For it, first of all we should understand why we need to join NATO or do we really need to?

Today North Atlantic Alliance represents the Alliance of 26 European democratic states and North America, the aim of which is to guarantee the security with the help of political and military cooperation means. With the help of the Alliance, Western European states and North America not only managed to improve and strengthen its democracy, but also reached higher rate stability.

Main perspective for Georgia to join NATO may be expressed as followed: Somehow the integration into NATO for Georgia represents the alternative way of self defense from Russian hegemony. Also as NATO’s functions are far more then only security problems, it will help Georgia with problems such as terrorism, illegal movement of military equipment and armament, smuggling, drug business, etc. After becoming the member of NATO Georgia’s living standard will also be improved and it will create a real basis for integration into the Euro-Atlantic space. The economic and social conditions will also increase. As for the political factor, the membership in this Alliance will increase the value of democracy in this country. The most important contemporary problems, two frozen conflicts in the region, should be solved in order to be accepted into the Alliance, and afterwards NATO will remain the guarantee of defense of the territorial integrity and the sovereignty of the country.

In 2002 at the Georgian Parliament new Parliamentary group responsible for Euro-Atlantic integration has been founded. In 2003 Georgia made official statement about the intention of the country to join North Atlantic Treaty Organization during the NATO Prague Summit. The integration into NATO is one of the main issues in Georgian National Security Concept, National Security Strategy, Defense Planning Guidance, and other main documents. In April of 2004 Individual Partnership Action Plan (IPAP) for Georgia was officially adopted at NATO headquarters.

Facilitate NATO integration process, this is the main priority of Georgia’s foreign policy. This will significantly improve of security environment and ensure stability in the Black Sea region. Regional stability and security in Caucasus is very important for Euro-Atlantic space, even more, so if we take into consideration the region’s proximity with the Middle East and global energetic issues. Thus, Georgia will itself actively support implementation of alliance aims. Being NATO member, Georgia will more actively participate in improving regional security as well as in peace support operations abroad. Perspective of NATO integration depends on fulfilling the obligations appropriately, particularly, on implementing defense reform successfully.

Currently cooperation with NATO is implemented in the framework of IPAP. Georgia is first member state of IPAP in South Caucasus. Georgia considers membership in the MAP (Membership Action Plan) as the next step after IPAP. All the abovementioned derives from obvious success in defense reforms that is confirmed by NATO and its member states’ experts.

Three phases of reform should be implemented in the framework of IPAP. Registration of personnel and inventory process were successfully accomplished. Authorities should especially outline elaboration of conceptual basis for development of GAF (Georgian Armed Forces) in the second phase. Key conceptual documents, such as National Military Strategy, Threat Assessment, Defense Policy Priorities for years 2005-2006, were adopted. The third phase will be finished at the second half of 2006. It considers establishment of future structure of AF in mid and long-term perspective and elaboration of concrete plan for achieving this aim.

Participation of Georgian contingent in operations is successful. By this participation Georgia contributes to improvement of global security environment and tries to be not only consumer, but at the same time provider of security.
Georgia’s active participation in Iraq, as well as NATO operations in Kosovo and Afghanistan has practical military outcomes besides the political ones. Particularly, the degree of NATO interoperability and experience level of military servants have significantly increased. US – Georgia Military programs supported completion of 2 full professional brigades compatible with NATO standards in 2006. Participation in Iraqi mission also contributes to this process. Abovementioned programs will make easier to fulfill NATO commitments timely and coherently.

Individual Partnership Action Plan (IPAP)

Individual Partnership Action Plan presents new mechanism of Georgia’s cooperation with NATO. Georgia became the first country with whom NATO started cooperation in forms of IPAP (October 29, 2004).
Two-year action plan is developed the different mechanisms of cooperation in one system. It should help the country to positively develop its internal reforms. IPAP should clearly define the aims and priorities of the partner country; it also makes easier the Alliance member countries to conduct bilateral relations with the Partner countries. NATO individually elaborates advises for each of the member countries.

The goals which are being reached in frames of IPAP include the general categories of political and security issues, such as defense, security, and military issues.

On October 29, 2004 Georgia became the first country which adopted the Individual Partnership Action Plan, after, on May 27, 2005 Azerbaijan and on December 16, 2005 Armenia were the following countries.
The effective implementation of this document is very essential for Georgia. The perspective of becoming first the member of Membership Action Plan (MAP) and then NATO itself depends on the way we conduct IPAP obligations.

IPAP is divided into four chapters and includes the aerial of reforms to become interoperable with NATO. First chapter is Political and Security Issues, it includes the following subjects: Security policy; Relations with Neighbor countries; War with Terrorism; Supremacy of Law, Human rights and Democracy; Economic Development and Priorities; solving internal problems; Cooperation with other Organizations. The second chapter concerns Defense, Security and Military issues, such as: Defense and Security Reform; Defense Planning Issues; Military and Interoperability Issues; Defense Economic Issues; Defense and Security Investment Issues; Logistics. The third chapter concerns the Societal Information, Science, Environmental Protection and Urgent Situation Planning. And the fourth chapter includes Administrative, Defensive Security and Resources Issues.

In June 2005 the Georgian government decided to publish IPAP document, what made the process to be more transparent. The experts from NATO member countries evaluate the process of IPAP implementation in Georgia. In November 2005 on the Georgian Security Forum the NATO member state authorities expressed their positive attitude towards Georgia and the chosen direction of conducting IPAP process.

Problems and Challenges on the way of Cooperation

Membership Action Plan (MAP):

The second step after IPAP has been achieved is Membership Action Plan (MAP). It is the last step to become NATO member.

A Membership Action Plan was launched to assist those countries which wish to join the Alliance in their preparations by providing advice, assistance and practical support on all aspects of NATO membership. To become a member of NATO, candidate countries have to demonstrate that they possess a functioning democratic, political system and market economy; that they treat minority population in accordance with OSCE guidelines; that they have resolved all outstanding disputes with neighbors and are committed to the peaceful settlement of disputes generally; that they are able and willing to make a military contribution to the Alliance and achieve interoperability with other member forces; and that civil-military relations in their country are in accordance with democratic standards.

Participation in the MAP does not guarantee future membership. It does, however, enable all of the countries concerned to focus their preparations on the goals and priorities set out in the plan. These cover all aspects of membership, including political, economic, defense, recourse, information, security and legal implications.

As it is seen, Georgia does not really satisfy any of the above mentioned requests in order to get MAP. Two frozen conflicts, which exist on the territory of Georgia already for years, remain unsolved; transition to market economy has not finished because of lots of economic problems and existence of serious problems as smuggling, high rate of corruption and unemployment, drug business, not stable political environment, refugee problems, continuous disputes with Russia, etc. To say truth, Georgia is not able to satisfy MAP requests today and also in nearest future.

There also exist from one side tiny problems, which are not been discussed frequently, but still play its important role. For example, there is no much information about NATO structures in Georgian language. People do not really understand what is NATO and why do we need to join it.

Democratic values of Georgia are not interoperable with the standard of European countries’. Georgian society prefers strikes and demonstrations to peaceful dialogue; there is no any attempt of understanding and cooperation between government and opposition; high rate of unemployment and poverty still remains.

Ways of Solution

As it was mentioned, there are a lot of problems to be solved in order to join North Atlantic Alliance. Georgia should satisfy IPAP and MAP requests and only after that it may have a chance to become the members of NATO. Achieving these goals and solving all or most of the abovementioned problems would be sufficient, even if Georgia does not get into NATO. The thing is that, these problems exist since the collapse of the Soviet Union and still remains unsolved, NATO won’t help country, nor some other organization or country, and country should try its best and prove that it can really be a democratic state, with peaceful international relations. The pain for all Georgians, two conflict zones in Abkhazia and South Ossetia, should be solved not because some organizations require it, but because it is the place where lots of homeless refugees hope to go back to their own homes. It is good that International Organizations help Georgia in solving problems, but society should remember that the main tasks lies on its shoulders.

What are the main ways of solution? First of all authorities should try to improve economic situation, increase salaries and pensions; try to have peaceful relations with the neighbor countries, especially it needs to achieve dialogue with Russia; though stabilize political and economic environment; all ministries should plan the implementation processes of action plans; the transparency of what is going on is essential for the society; the frequency of meetings on governmental level, conferences, seminars should increase and develop; and only after successful solution of this tasks country will be able to satisfy NATO standards.
