| Summary/Abstract |
THE UNITED STATES' GLOBAL missile defense system is a far more serious problem for the national security of the People's Republic of China than for Russia, as China's nuclear missile capability is much weaker than Russia's and has lower survivability. Indeed, given that the US and its allies are not particularly secretive about their intentions to form a united front against China, which they claim is challenging the whole Western world - China can't help but cast a wary eye on the plans of bringing US military structures close to its borders.

| Summary/Abstract |
THE REGIME for conventional arms control in Europe, established in the 1990s after the end of the Cold War, was for those years a unique set of measures and was seen as a model suitable for other parts of the world as well. However, destructive activities by NATO member countries over the past two decades have eroded it and threaten to ruin it completely if these activities are not stopped. The Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe (CFE), which was considered the cornerstone of this regime, is practically dead.

| Summary/Abstract |
IN 2019, the NATO countries celebrated the 70th anniversary of their military alliance with great fanfare. A common theme of the anniversary celebrations and NATO leaders' related public statements, as well as the London Declaration that the leaders of the NATO countries adopted at a meeting in London on December 3-4, 2019, is the idea that NATO is indispensable to maintaining security in the Euro-Atlantic region and the world as a whole, and that the policy of resolutely deterring Russia must continue. Even though the wording of the bloc's strategy has changed as the international situation and relations with the USSR/Russia change, that key element has remained a constant, fundamental principle of all seven strategic concepts and other basic documents of the alliance throughout its entire existence.

| Summary/Abstract |
TOTAL CONTROL over the Asia-Pacific as a step toward world domination had been on America's agenda for a long time before the dynamic shifts of recent decades, the status of the leading world powers reached by China and India and their membership, together with Russia, in the SCO and BRICS raised fairly high barriers to Washington's global ambitions.

| Summary/Abstract |
NATO's military expansion knows no bounds. After claiming that their military and political interests extend practically all over the globe and that they have a right to military action anywhere in the world they like, the leading member countries of the North Atlantic alliance have set out to establish military and technological supremacy in outer space.

| Summary/Abstract |
AS THE MEMBERS of the alliance never tire of saying, the NATO countries are conducting the largest buildup of the bloc's collective military forces since the end of the Cold War. Along with the programmed increase in military expenditures, the expansion of the alliance's military potential, and the rise in the number of forward-based troops along Russia's borders on the territory of the East European countries, the scale of military activity is expanding, and facilities for the stockpiling of weapons, heavy vehicles, and other materiel are being created or brought up to NATO standards.

| Summary/Abstract |
THE ATLANTIC OCEAN, first and foremost its northern stretch, is what NATO considers its exclusive zone of vitally important interests. This idea is supported by the fact that it is the site of vital lines of communication and transport bridging North America and Europe, as well as strategically important military and civilian facilities, the protection of which is becoming one of the Alliance's key objectives amid what Western sources call an unprecedented increase in activity by the Russian Navy and Air Force in this subregion. What's more, the definition of the North Atlantic is being enlarged to include not only its strictly geographic area, but the entire water surface of the Baltic and Barents seas. These bodies are now considered a single theater of operations in the case of a military conflict with Russia.1

THE CONVENTION on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on their Destruction (Chemical Weapons Convention or CWC) has become nearly equal in terms of universality to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (Non-Proliferation Treaty or NPT) in a comparatively short period of 16 years.

| Summary/Abstract |
THE CORE tasks of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) include maintaining peace and security in member states and helping them prevent or settle crises or conflicts that may arise in their territory or in their relationships with one another. OSCE field operations in vulnerable member countries are an important tool for the organization to carry out these tasks. Any such operation is naturally conditional on the consent of the host country and requires the approval of all OSCE member states.

| Summary/Abstract |
THE JULY 2016 WARSAW NATO Summit not only decided to strengthen its military and political confrontation with Russia but also strongly invigorated the realization of its strategy designed to transform the North Atlantic Alliance from a purely regional defensive pact into a global military-political structure of "cooperative security" accommodating the geopolitical interests of the United States and the leading Western countries and seen as a substitute of the "inefficient" United Nations. One of the key elements of this newly formulated strategy is creating a global coalition of the NATO partners with the biggest possible number of states and international organizations from all corners of the world. The NATO strategists expect that this will bring them closer to their abovementioned aim.

| Summary/Abstract |
WHILE CLAMORING to rid the world of all its nukes, pursuing a propaganda ballyhoo that it has orchestrated with support from a large group of allies and numerous deceived champions of immediate nuclear disarmament, the United States is aiming nuclear weapons and cutting-edge conventional arms at practically all countries. This is essentially what the Pentagon's strategic "triad" program is all about - it is a plan to build an armed forces group consisting of nuclear weapons, a missile defense system and precision conventional offensive arms that would be able to carry out an unexpected destructive strike against a target in any spot on the globe. "No target on the planet or in space would be immune to American attack," said U.S. military analyst William Arkin. "The U.S. could strike without warning whenever and wherever a threat was perceived, and it would be protected by missile defenses."
