Jun/June 2014 President of the Assembly of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina, Mr. Ištvan Pastor greeted conference participants and pointed out the importance of launching debate about the key strategic issues especially having in mind that time and politics are changing. Serbia-NATO relationships are considered as a topic of great importance particularly when we came to decades-old history of cooperation. The fact is that in 1953 then Yugoslavia, in relation to NATO in terms of institutions and an atmosphere of cooperation, was in a better position than Serbia is today. Today we are in a situation that this cooperation is worser, than it was six or seven years ago. Since then much larger number of people said they trusted and thought Serbia should join to the NATO. At the conference was also presented the project „Drinking Water, Quality Risk Assessment and Prevention in Novi Sad Municipality“ supported by the NATO Science for Peace and Security Programme (implemented in partnership with the Faculty of Technical Science, University of Novi Sad and the Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava) was presented together with activities of the Environmnet and Security Initiative (NATO is associated member of the ENVSEC Initiative).

Tema odnosa Srbije i NATO-a je važna, posebno imajući u vidu višedecenijsku istoriju saradnje i činjenicu da je 1953. godine tadašnja Jugoslavija u odnosu na NATO u institucionalnom smislu i atmosferi saradnje bila u povoljnijoj poziciji nego danas. Činjenica je i da smo danas u nepovoljnijoj poziciji nego pre 6-7 godina jer je tada mnogo veći broj građana smatrao da Srbija treba da se priključi NATOu. Učesnicima konferencije je prezentovan projekat „Procena rizika i zaštita kvaliteta izvorišta pijaće vode u Novom Sadu“ podržan od NATO programa „Nauka za mir i bezbednost“, a koji realizuju Fakultet tehničkih nauka Univerziteta u Novom Sadu i Univerzitet u Bratislavi, kao i aktivnosti Environment and Security inicijative čiji je NATO pridruženi član. Konferencija je održana u senci protesta pripadnika desničarske organizacije „Dveri“ koji su ispred Skupštine AP Vojvodine razvili anti-NATO transparente, podsećajući na rušenje novosadskih mostova 1999. i paleći sveće za žrtve.

Oni su takođe zaključili, da je uprkos činjenici da je podrška srpskog stanovništva za NATO niska (oko 13%), Partnerstvo za mir stvara okvir za obostrano korisnu saradnju, što značajno doprinosi stabilnosti, razvoju i prosperitetu celog regiona.

The multinational tactical exercise “Plavi Vuk 2014” took place from June 30 until July 10, 2014 and it included 60 members of senior personnel and soldiers of the Armed Forces of Serbia, 25 members of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Bulgaria, 25 of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Romania, 30 members of the of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Azerbaijan, 32 members of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Macedonia, 14 officers, non-commissioned officers and professional soldiers from the Armed Forces of the Republic of Croatia and 86 members of the Armed Forces of USA. Exercise activities were conducted in two stages; during the first stage, training of “Nonlethal Weapons” was conducted under the supervision of the US instructors. Multinacionalna taktička vežba „Platinasti vuk 2014“ će se realizovati od 30-og juna do 10-og jula. Na njoj učestvuje 60 starešina i vojnika Vojske Srbije, 25 iz oružanih snaga Republike Bugarske, 25 iz oružanih snaga Republike Rumunije, 30 lica iz oružanih snaga Republike Azarbejdžan, 32 lica iz oružanih snaga Republike Makedonije, 14 oficira,podoficira i profesionalnih vojnika iz oružanih snaga Republike Hrvatske i 86 pripadnika oružanih snaga SAD. Vežbovne aktivnosti će se izvoditi u dve faze i to tako što će se u prvoj fazi realizovati obuka na temu „Neubojito oružje“. Obuku će sprovoditi instruktori iz SAD, a tokom obuke će se učesnici vežbe upoznati sa mogućnostima nesmrtonosnog oružja i osposobljavati u postupcima lišavanja slobode lica bez upotrebe sredstava za privremeno onesposobljavanje, rukovanju sredstvima za privremeno onesposobljavanje, upotrebi službene palice i kontroli masovnog okupljanja. U prvoj fazi će se obuka realizovati na bazi „ Jug“ i poligonu „ Borovac“. During the excercise participants had possibility to try using of various non-lethal weapons and trained in procedures of apprehending persons with the use of means for temporary disablement, using batons and means for crowd-control. The first stage of the excercise took place at the base “Jug” and “Borovac” training ground in South Serbia. U drugoj fazi vežbovnih aktivnosti, u okviru teme „ Operacija očuvanja mira“, na poligonu „Borovac“ će se u terenskim uslovima realizovati sadržaji poput pružanja pomoći u borbenim dejstvima, pešačke i izviđačke patrole, kontrolnog punkta, snaga za brzo reagovanje, patrole na motornom vozilu, konvoja i eskorta, zaštite snaga, privremenog kontrolnog punkta, pretrage i blokade i dejstva protiv eksplozivnih naprava. During the second stage of exercise entitled “Peace-keeping Operation”, which also took place at “Borovac” training grounds, different skills needed for deployment in peace-keeping operations: providing first-aid in a combat situation, infantry and scouting patrols, work at check-points, rapid response forces, motor vehicle patrols, convoy missions, escort and protection of forces, searching missions and counter explosive device tactics were trained. 15 No./Broj: 06/2014. Jun/June 2014 Analysis: Why Montenegro should be accepted into NATO as soon as possible* Analiza: Zašto bi Crna gora trebalo da bude primljena u NATO što pre?* Jelena Milić, Center for Euro-Atlantic Studies (CEAS), Belgrade Jelena Milić, Center for Euro-Atlantic Studies (CEAS), Belgrade One of the main reasons why NATO members should speed up the process of NATO membership for Montenegro is that this would guarantee that the region of the Western Balkans will stabilize additionally. One must still take into consideration chances of armed conflict in Bosnia or elsewhere in the region, caused by constitutional arrangement stalemates and growing nationalist movements which are partly a result of lack of progress towards Euro-Atlantic integration. In case of this scenario NATO would have, alongside Croatia, one more member state which could respond quickly. Jedan od glavnih razloga zašto bi NATO članice trebalo da ubrzaju process NATO članstva Crne Gore je taj što bi to bila garancija da će se region Zapadnog Balkana dodatno stabilizovati. Treba i dalje imati u vidu mogućnost oružanog sukoba u Bosni ili drugde u regionu, izazvan pat pozicijom ustavnih rešenja i rastućim nacionalističkim pokretima koji su delom rezultat nedostatka napretka ka evroatlantskim integracijama. U tom slučaju, NATO bi, pored Hrvatske, imao još jednu zemlju članicu koja može brzo da reaguje. Nažalost, ovakav scenario u regionu, dodatno provociran sve agresivnijim delovanjem „Putinovog orkestra“ (pojedinci, organizacije, mediji i delovi državnog aparata koji šire propagandu Putinove Rusije i osporavaju evroatlantske integracije) - u Srbiji, Bosni i Crnoj Gori, te generalno komplikovana situacija u Makedoniji - ne sme se ne uzeti u razmatranje. Način na koji je Rusija argumentovala aneksiju Krima, koja nema nikakve veze sa Kosovom, može se pre koristiti kao „argument“ za otcepljenje Republike Srpske, juga Srbije, Sandžaka, severa Kosova... Unfortunately, the possibility of such a scenario in the region is additionally provoked by the increasingly aggressive actions of 'Putin's Orchestra' (individuals, organizations, media and parts of the state apparatus who spread the propaganda of Putin's Russia and defy Euro-Atlantic integrations) which - in Serbia, Bosnia and Montenegro, alongside the generally complicated situation in Macedonia - must not be disregarded. The way in which Russia arguments the annexation of Crimea, which has no relation to Kosovo, can rather be used as an 'argument' for the secession of the Republic of Srpska, the south of Serbia, Sandzak, north Kosovo... the secession of the Republic of Srpska, the south of Serbia, Sandzak, north Kosovo... Ovakvim gestom NATO bi pokazao da poštuje svoje saveznike. Crna Gora, što se u Srbiji malo zna, jedna je od zemalja koja ima svoje snage u ISAF misiji u Avganistanu. Prijemom Crne Gore NATO bi pokazao i da se ne usteže od širenja, koje mu Rusija sve otvorenije spočitava. To je, naravno, „lakše“ raditi kada su u pitanju zemlje koje se granične sa Rusijom, pre svega zato što one kasne sa drugim vrstama demokratske konsolidacije potrebne za članstvo, ali ni tu argument o „pravu Rusije da se buni protiv NATO na svojim granicama“ ne stoji. Turska, Norveška i SAD imaju granice sa Rusijom. With such a gesture, NATO would demonstrate respect for its allies. Montenegro is, which is little known in Serbia, one of the countries who have troops deployed in ISAF's mission in Afghanistan. By granting Montenegro membership, NATO would also demonstrate that it does not refrain from enlargement, which has been an argument of the increasingly open remarks of Russia. This is, naturally, quite 'easier' to do when it concerns countries that are bordering Russia, primarily those that are also late with other types of democratic consolidation needed for membership, but the argument of 'Russia's right to rebel against NATO at its borders' falls short here as well. Turkey, Norway and the USA all share borders with Russia. 16 No./Broj: 06/2014. Jun/June 2014 Russian intentions in the Western Balkans are increasingly obvious - it is not just a matter of stopping NATO integration, but primarily a matter of stopping EU integration of all three mentioned countries. There are also, of course, geo-strategic interests of encircling the north-Mediterranean region into a community of stable democracies. Another country from the region in NATO also means more Serbs from the region in NATO, which would probably, if even only slightly, give additional arguments for the Government in Belgrade and the leadership in the Republic of Srpska (which is hindering NATO integrations of BIH), to rethink their security challenges and risks more rationally, as well as the potential of their countries to respond to these independently. Ruske namere na Zapadnom Balkanu sve su očitije nije u pitanju samo zaustavljanje NATO integracija već pre svega EU integracija spomenute tri zemlje. Tu su naravno i geostrateški interesi zaokruživanja severnomediteranskog regiona u zajednicu stabilnih demokratija. Još jedna zemlja regiona u NATO znači i još više Srba iz regiona u NATO, što bi verovatno, ako ne zamajac, onda dalo dodatne argumente vladi u Beogradu i rukovodstvu Republike Srpske (koje koči NATO integracije BiH), da još racionalnije promisle svoje bezbednosne izazove i rizike, te mogućnost da njihove zemlje na njih samostalno odgovaraju. Prijemom Crne Gore u NATO, zemlje političkog Zapada bi osigurale velike političke i finansijske investicije koje su uložile u stabilizaciju i demokratsku konsolidaciju regiona bez kojih nijedna zemlja Zapadnog Balkana ne bi postigla dosadašnji nivo napretka, i obezbedili bolje uslove za nastavak spomenutih procesa, koje sve agresivnija Putinova politika u regionu ostruira. By granting Montenegro NATO membership, the countries of the political West would secure the great political and financial investments they made in stabilization and democratic consolidation of the region, without which none of the countries of the Western Balkans would have reached their present level of progress, or secure better conditions for continuation of the processes mentioned, which Putin's increasingly aggressive policy in the region is obstructing. NATO bi brzim učlanjenjem Crne Gore u savez relativno malo rizikovao. Obaveze koje se od Crne Gore još očekuju su u proceduri. Ovo se pre svega odnosi na izmene Zakona o Agenciji za nacionalnu bezbednost (ANB), čiji je predlog nedavno utvrdila Vlada Crne Gore, kao i na Dodatni dopunski protokol sporazuma između članica NATO i Partnerstva za mir (PzM). Preostale obaveze mogu se ispuniti i po prijemu Crne Gore u NATO. Montenegro's membership at a faster pace would be a relatively small risk for NATO. The obligations which Montenegro is yet to fulfil are in procedure. This primarily relates to amendments to the Law on the National Security Agency (ANB), a draft of which the Government of Montenegro recently adopted, as well as the Additional Supplementary Protocol on the Agreement between NATO and Partnership for Peace (PfP) members states. If not before, as they would be most likely, the remaining mentioned and other obligations can be fulfilled after Montenegro's accession to NATO. By joining NATO at a faster pace Montenegro would gain plenty. This primarily relates to regulating internal affairs for continuation of the much needed EU integrations which the Putin's Orchestra is undermining increasingly loud. Although NATO membership is not a requirement for EU membership, it is obvious that NATO membership brings political stability as a result of reforms in the security system without which, in postconflict and post-authoritarian societies - as are the three mentioned countries of the region - there is no essential democratization. The mechanisms of EU integration are not as explicit and powerful when it comes to matters of reforming the security system, but are complementary with NATO integrations, and together they give the best results. Crna Gora bi brzim ulaskom u NATO puno dobila. Ovo se pre svega odnosi na uređenje unutrašnjih okolnosti za nastavak preko potrebnih EU integracija, koje Putinov orkestar sve glasnije podriva. Iako članstvo u NATO nije uslov za članstvo u EU, očito je da članstvo u NATO donosi političku stabilnost usled reformi sistema bezbednosti bez koga u postkonfliktnim i postautoritarnim društvima - kakve su sve tri spomenute zemlje regiona - nema suštinske demokratizacije. Mehanizmi EU integracija nisu tako eksplicitni i moćni kada je u pitanju reforma sistema bezbednosti, ali jesu komplementarni sa NATO integracijama, i zajedno daju najbolje rezultate. 17 No./Broj: 06/2014. Jun/June 2014 This should primarily be considered by those in Montenegro who support Montenegro's EU integrations, but have an ambivalent view on NATO membership. In reaching a decision they can be supported by the conclusions of a series of events recently organized in the region on marking the 65th anniversary since the establishment of NATO, and the 20th anniversary since the adoption of NATO's Open Door Policy.[1] O ovome bi u Crnoj Gori pre svega trebalo da razmišljaju oni koji su za EU integracije Crne Gore, ali imaju ambivalentan stav o članstvu u NATO. U donošenju odluke mogu im pomoći zaključci sa serije događaja organizovanih nedavno u regionu povodom obeležavanja 65 godina od formiranja NATO i 20 godina od usvajanja NATO Politike otvorenih vrata.[1] Predstavnici svih zemalja koje su primljene u NATO od pada Berlinskog zida naovamo istakli su da su, kao posledicu članstva, njihove zemlje iskusile jačanje bezbednosti, konsolidaciju institucija, ekonomski i generalni društveni razvoj. Representatives of all countries that have joined NATO since the fall of the Berlin Wall to date have pointed out that, as a consequence of membership, their countries have experienced strengthened security, institutional consolidation, economic and general social development. Upravo ova bitna kategorija crnogorskog društva bi trebala dobro da prati anti-NATO kampanju u Crnoj Gori koja je više anti-globalizacijska, anti-21.vek i antipremijer-Đukanović-pro-Putin, nego bilo šta drugo. Sprovode je ljudi i organizacije koji promovišu autokratiju umesto demokratije, bez ustezanja plasiraju netačnosti u javni prostor, šire strah i arbitrarno određuju ko su patriote a ko izdajnici, negiraju koncept ljudskih prava, sekularne države, odvojenih grana vlasti, nemaju ništa protiv partijske nad demokratskom kontrolom sistema bezbednosti, pričaju o nepostojećem sukobu civilizacija u Evropi, neretko ceo proces globalizacije vide kao zaveru „trulog Zapada“ - što su sve karakteristike „Putinizacije“[2] kao stila vladanja. Oni koji su protiv članstva Crne Gore u NATO zato što su protiv režima Mila Đukanovića treba da imaju u vidu da u zemljama članicama NATO retko postoje lideri koji su dve i više decenija na vlasti, ali da i te kako postoje snažnije i nezavisnije institucije države, demokratska kontrola sistema bezbednosti i slobodni mediji. It is exactly this important category of the Montenegrin society that should carefully monitor the anti-NATO campaign in Montenegro, which is more antiglobalization, anti-twenty first century and anti-Prime Minister Djukanovic-pro-Putin, than anything else. It is implemented by the people and organizations that promote autocracy instead of democracy, placing inaccuracies into the public sphere without constraint, spread fear and arbitrarily determine who are the patriots and who are the traitors, negate the concept of human rights, a secular state, separate branches of government, have nothing against partybefore-democratic control over the security system, talk about the non-existent battle of civilizations in Europe, often see the entire process of globalization as a conspiracy by the 'rotten West' – all of which are characteristics of 'Putinization'[2] as a form of government. Those against Montenegro's NATO membership, because they are against the regime of Milo Djukanović, should bear in mind that in NATO member states there rarely exist leaders who have remained in power for two or more decades, but that there certainly exist stronger and more independent state institutions, democratic control of the security system and free media. 18 No./Broj: 06/2014. Jun/June 2014 Pro-EU voters in Montenegro would have to distance themselves very loudly from the anti-modernization and anti-EU trends, increasingly promoted in Montenegro by members of the 'Putin's Orchestra', under the cape of an anti-NATO campaign. If they are against Montenegro's NATO membership, they should give much more convincing arguments on the capabilities of Montenegro to independently respond to global security risks and challenges such as: terrorism, organized crime, migrations, cybercriminal, climate change, natural and industrial disasters and the like. It should also be noted, because many in Montenegro furiously lie to the public, that the Collective Security Treaty Organization is not a Russian alternative to NATO. It is only an idea, without developed mechanisms, common standards, regulations and a command chain - all the elements that NATO has and that make it unique, primarily the provision that refers to the protection of common values of democracy and freedom. For those faced with a dilemma, there are examples of how NATO reacted in cases of major global natural disasters, such as the earthquake in Pakistan, tsunami in south-east Asia, or earthquake in Haiti, as well as how the CSTO did (as it did not). Furthermore, one should not forget that the EU Common Security and Defense Policy, in many aspects complementary with NATO, also lacks a common command structure, as well as codification of standards and procedures. Only NATO has these. Pro-EU birači u Crnoj Gori bi se morali vrlo glasno distancirati protiv anti-modernizacijskih i anti-EU trendova koje sve glasnije u Crnoj Gori promovišu članovi „Putinovog orkestra“ kroz plašt anti-NATO kampanje. Ako su protiv članstva Crne Gore u NATO, morali bi dati mnogo uverljivije argumente o mogućnostima Crne Gore da na globalne bezbednosne rizike i izazove poput: terorizma, organizovanog kriminala, migracija, sajber kriminala, klimatskih promena, prirodnih i industrijskih nesreća i drugog, odgovori samostalno. Takođe treba napomenuti, zato što mnogi u Crnoj Gori besumučno lažu javnost, da Organizacija dogovora o kolektivnoj bezbednosti nije ruska alternativa NATO. To je tek ideja, koja nema razrađene mehanizme, zajedničke standarde, propise i komandni lanac - sve elemente koje ima NATO i koji ga čine jedinstvenim, pre svega odredbu koja spominje zaštitu zajedničkih vrednosti demokratije i sloboda. Za one koji imaju dilemu, neka pogledaju primere kako je NATO reagovao u slučaju velikih globalnih prirodnih katastrofa poput zemljotresa u Pakistanu, cunamija u jugoistočnoj Aziji ili zemljotresa na Haitiju, a kako ODKB (nikako). Takođe, ne treba smetnuti s uma da Zajednička bezbednosna i odbrambena politika EU, umnogome komplementarna sa NATO, takođe nema zajedničku komandnu strukturu, niti kodifikaciju standarda i procedura. To ima samo NATO. Ipak, Ander Fog Rasmusen, odlazeći generalni sekretar NATO, izjavio je sredinom juna da savez neće ocenjivati kandidaturu Crne Gore do 2015. godine. Crna Gora može naći neku utehu u činjenici da je NATO zvaničnik dodao da „nijedna treća zemlja nema pravo veto nad pitanjima NATO proširenja“[3]. Still, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, NATO outgoing Secretary General, declared in midJune that the alliance would not assess Montenegro’s candidacy until 2015. Montenegro can seek some condolence in the fact that the NATO official added that “no third country has a veto over NATO enlargement”[3]. 19 No./Broj: 06/2014. Jun/June 2014 Is this the case? Da li je to i slučaj? The responses to this statement in Montenegro were expected: The opposition (a strange blend of Serbian nationalist parties and pro-EU-but-vague-on-NATO parties, bonded only by anti-PM Milo Djukanović policies, and pretty exposed to the influence of the increasingly attuned and loud “Putin’s Orchestra”[4] in the entire Western Balkans, without a clear, common vision on where Montenegro should go) hurried to point out that this was a blow to Djukanović, that the Government did not complete their tasks, primarily those related to strengthening the rule of law and reform of the intelligence community. Paradoxically, the latter is rarely mentioned as a priority among them, and has come to the agenda due to Montenegro’s NATO approximation, pushed by the current government and PM Djukanović. The same logic can be applied for the still taboo topics in Serbia - the role of the, at the time, Yugoslav Armed Forces (Serbian and Montenegrin), in the killing of Kosovo Albanian civilians during 1989-99, and how feasible it was to stop them. The debate on NATO membership brought this important topic up among the Montenegro society. Reakcije na ovu izjavu u Crnoj Gori su bile očekivane: opozicija (čudan spoj srpskih nacionalističkih partija i pro-EU and NATO-ambivalentnih partija, vezanih samo anti-premijer Milo Đukanović politikama, i prilično izloženih uticaju sve usklađenijeg i glasnijeg „Putinovog orkestra“[4] na celom zapadnom Balkanu, bez jasne, zajedničke vizije o tome u kom pravcu bi Crna Gora trebalo da ide) požurila je da istakne da je ovo bio udarac za Đukanovića, da Vlada nije ispunila svoje zadatke, posebno one vezane za jačanje vladavine prava i reformu obaveštajnih službi. Paradoksalno, ovo poslednje se retko pominje kao prioritet među njima, i došlo je na dnevni red zbog približavanja Crne Gore NATO, pod pritiskom trenutne Vlade i premijera Đukanovića. Ista logika se može primeniti i na još uvek tabu teme u Srbiji – ulogu tadašnje Vojske Jugoslavije (srpske i crnogorske) u ubistvu civila kosovskih Alabanaca tokom 1998.-99.i kako je bilo moguće sprečiti ih. Debata o NATO članstvu iznedrila je ovu važnu temu u crnogorskoj javnosti. Nekako, istovremeno sa saopštenjem da samit u Velsu neće biti i samti proširenja, Associated Press objavio je priču o desetinama ruskih špijuna u obaveštajnoj zajednici Crne Gore, kao jednom od razloga za odlaganje poziva za članstvo[5]. Opet, da li bi ova važna tema došla u javnost da nije bilo nikakve debate a aktivnosti u vezi sa NATO članstvom Crne Gore? Još važnije, da li i jedan od problema sa kojima se Crna Gora suočava može da se reši kroz proces približavanja, jer postaje sve očiglednije da Putinova Rusija ima plan da uspori i na kraju uguši napredak zemalja zapadnog Balkana ka EU i NATO? Pored toga, tenzije koje se šire u Makedoniji (poslednje u nizu prouzrokovane izrečenim kazanama na suđenju za ubistvo 5 etničkih Makedonaca) sve su češće i prete da se preliju, barem ka Kosovu. Somehow, at the same time as the announcement that the Wales Summit is not going to be an enlargement one, Associated Press published a story on dozens of Russian spies in the Montenegro intelligence community, as one of the reasons for postponement of the invitation[5]. Again, would have this import topic finally be brought to the public, had there been no debate and actions towards Montenegro NATO membership? More importantly, can any of the problems that Montenegro still faces be resolved through the approximation process, as it is becoming increasingly obvious that Putin’s Russia has an agenda to slow down and ultimately suffocate Western Balkans countries’ progress towards EU and NATO? Additionally, tensions spreading in Macedonia (the latest series caused by sentences in the trial for the murder of 5 ethnic Macedonians) are more and more regular, threatening to spill over at least to Kosovo. 20 No./Broj: 06/2014. Jun/June 2014 It would be harder to destabilize Albania, a NATO member. Along these lines, would the Albanian state, if not due to NATO membership and reforms and support that it brought, be able to finally enter a village on its territory that openly develops an economy of the scale operation of producing marihuana?[6] Bilo bi teže destabilizovati Albaniju, članicu NATO. U skladu s tim, da li bi država Albanija, ako ne zbog NATO članstva i reformi i podrške koje to donosi, bila u stanju da konačno uđe u selo u okviru svojih granica u kome se otvoreno razvija ekonomija proizvodnje marihuane?[6] Na regionalnom nivou, od Rasmusenove izjave, Rusija i Srbija povećale su broj bilateralnih sastanaka na visokom nivou, najavljujući intenzivniju vojnu saradnju i saradnju u oblasti odbrambene industrije[7]. Iako se navodno nije spominjalo tokom nedavne posete Moskvi premijera Srbije Aleksandra Vučića, Rusija ima velika očekivanja od predstojećeg ko-predsedavanja Srbije OEBSom. Srpske pro-Putin grupe, sa vezama ka Srpskoj pravoslavnoj crkvi, nisu suočene ni sa kakvom osudom od strane države (koja navodno ne zauzima nijednu stranu u konfliktu) za posete zvaničnika Pridnjestrovlja, pro-ruske otcepljene pokrajine Moldavije[8]. Osim toga, situacija u Ukrajini, nažalost, ne pokazuje trend deeskalacije. Dokazi direktne podrške Rusije pobunjenicima se gomilaju. Pažnja Zapadnih saveznika je takođe tanko razvučena, imajući u vidu novu rundu nasilnih sukoba na Bliskom istoku. Pogoršanje odnosa Nemačke i SAD, izazvano obaveštajnim aferama, preti da izazove pukotine, ili barem uspori zajedničko postavljanje prioriteta u datoj situaciji i zajedničko strateško planiranje budućnosti među Zapadnim saveznicima. On the regional level, since Rasmussen’s statement, Russia and Serbia have increased the numbers of highlevel bilateral meetings, announcing more intensive military and defense industry cooperation[7]. Although allegedly not mentioned during the recent visit of the Serbian PM Aleksandar Vučić to Moscow, Russia has great expectations from the forthcoming Serbian OSCE co-presidency. Serbian pro-Putin groups, with links to the Serbian Orthodox Church, are facing no condemnation from the government (which is allegedly taking no sides in the conflict) for visiting officials of Transnistria, a pro-Russian breakaway region of Moldova[8]. Furthermore, the situation in Ukraine unfortunately, does not show a trend of deescalation. Evidence of direct Russian support of rebels is piling up. The Western allies are also stretched thin in their attention as the Middle East enters another round of violent clashes. Germany-USA deterioration in relations, caused by intelligence affairs, threatens to cause cracks, or at least slow down the common setting of priorities in the given situation and common strategic planning for the future among the Western allies. Imajući u vidu sve gorenavedeno, Zapadni saveznici bi trebalo da preispitaju odluku da ne daju Crnoj Gori poziv za članstvo u NATO na samitu u septembu koji će se održati u Velikoj Britaniji. Bearing in the mind all of the above mentioned, the Western allies should reconsider the decision that Montenegro would not receive an invitation to join NATO at the September Summit which will be held in Great Britain. 21 No./Broj: 06/2014. Jun/June 2014 Excellent cases along the same lines with more geostrategic explanations, with a call for a more strategic vision and decision making among allies, with regard to the region of the Western Balkans, have been recently, after Rasmussen’s statement, made by Edward P. Joseph and Janusz Bugajski, in the article “Long March to Brussels: Why NATO and the EU Must Reopen their Doors to the Balkans”[9] published by Foreign Affairs on June 26, 2014; and by Michael Haltzel, senior fellow at the Center for Transatlantic Relations at the Johns Hopkins University’s School of Advanced International Studies, in the article “Extend NATO’s umbrella to Montenegro and Macedonia”, published by The Washington Post on June 27, 2014[10]. The mentioned articles also offer a roadmap to resolution for some disputes that are currently impeding progress of the Western Balkans countries towards NATO, especially Macedonia. Odlični primeri duž iste linije sa više geo-strateškim objašnjenjima, uz poziv za većom strateškom vizijom i odlučivanjem među saveznicima kada je u pitanju region Zapadnog Balkana, nedavno su, nakon Rasmusenove izjave, pružili Edward P. Joseph i Janusz Bugajski u članku “Dug mars do Brisela: Zašto NATO i EU moraju ponovo otvoriti svoja vrata Balkanu“[9], objavljenom od strane Foreign Affairs-a 26. juna 2014.; i Michael Haltzel, viši saradnik u Centru za transatlantske odnose pri Školi za napredne međunarodne studije Johns Hopkins Univerziteta, u članku "Produžiti NATO kišobran u Crnoj Gori i Makedoniji", koji je objavio Vashington Post, 27. juna 2014[10]. Pomenuti članci takođe nude i smernice za rezoluciju nekih sporova koji trenutno otežavaju napredak zemalja Zapadnog Balkana ka NATO, posebno Makedonije. U slučaju da Crna Gora na samitu u Velsu ne dobije uslovni poziv, vladajuća struktura u Crnoj Gori, koja je jačanjem napora za članstvo Crne Gore u NATO i jasnim stavom da će svoju spoljnu politiku sve više usaglašavati sa partnerima iz EU i NATO učinila državnički iskorak za buduće generacije, ne bi trebalo da bude razočarana. Uslovni poziv bi verovatno došao i sa jasnijim očekivanjima o obavezama koje su još pred Crnom Gorom, sa nagoveštajima hronologije sledećih događaja i, nadajmo se, sa ponudom za više pomoći u njihovom sprovođenju. Vlast bi trebalo odmah da ih uvrsti u svoje planove, nastavljajući tako da se pokazuje kao sistemski pouzdan partner političkog Zapada. In the likely case that Montenegro does not receives invitation at the Summit in Wales, the governing structure in Montenegro which made a statesmanlike step for future generations, by strengthening its efforts for obtaining NATO membership and through a clear position that it will increasingly align its foreign policy with that of its EU and NATO partners, should not be disappointed. Such a decision would most likely be accompanied with clearer expectations on the obligations that still lie ahead for Montenegro, and with hints on the chronology of upcoming events, and hopefully with an offer for more assistance for their implementation. The Government should endorse these into its plans immediately, continuing in this way to prove itself as a systemically reliable partner to the political West. * A shorter version of this article was originally published by the Danas daily newspaper on June 22, 2014, before Rasmussen’s statement, and is available (in Serbian) via the following link: * Kraća verzija ovog članka objavljena je u original u dnevnim novinama Danas, 22. juna 2014. godine, pre Rasmusenove izjave, i dostupna je putem sledećeg linka: http://www.danas.rs/danasrs/dijalog/zasto_crna_gora _treba_sto_pre_u_nato.46.html?news_id=283951 http://www.danas.rs/danasrs/dijalog/zasto_crna_gora _treba_sto_pre_u_nato.46.html?news_id=283951 Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed herein are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of the newsletter publisher or its sponsors!
