Dursun-Özkanca: The new Strategic Concept should emphasize the Alliance’s role in crisis management, as the floods in Pakistan have demonstrated that NATO’s response is inadequate.

MoreAugust 29, 2010 | The Potential of the South CaucasusJasur Sumerinli Mammadov: NATO’s new Strategic Concept must address its relations with the South Caucasus region, which holds a place of particular geopolitical importance.
