Nato

NATO remains the central pillar of transatlantic security, uniting 32 democracies in a collective defense architecture shaped by an increasingly contested geopolitical environment. The alliance confronts a transformed landscape defined by Russia’s war against Ukraine, renewed great‑power competition, hybrid threats, and rising demands for deterrence, resilience, and defense industrial capacity. The Center’s mission is to support strategies that strengthen cohesion, modernize NATO’s posture, and reinforce the credibility of the transatlantic community amid sustained strategic uncertainty.
