Divide on Ukrainian and Georgian NATO Membership
Taras Kuzio, George Washington University | April 2, 2008
NATO enlargement is dividing the Euro-Alantic community into old and new Europe. ++ Representing old Europe, Germany, France and Austria only want to offer an "Enhanced Agreement" instead of Membership Action Plans to Ukraine and Georgia, one reason being not to provoke Russia. ++ To offer anything less than MAPs to Ukraine and Georgia would question NATO’s open-door policy.
