NATO peacekeeping mission in Kosovo

Summary/Abstract: Nowadays, the concept of the security of states in the world is no longer limited by the borders of one state, the stable situation in the state depends on the integration processes developed at the regional and global level. Among the numerous organizations in the world, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) occupies a central place. The answer to the question of what are the main reasons for the success of this organization must first be found in its principles and values. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), established in 1949, was able to fulfill its main duties, namely to protect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of its member states. After the end of the "Cold War", when the issue of its absence became active, NATO was able to transform itself and continues to function successfully to this day. The North Atlantic Alliance has undergone a number of changes in the history of its existence, one of these changes is the decision to engage in peacekeeping operations and crisis management, regardless of the geographical location of the conflict. The Alliance recognizes that today threats are no longer confined to a single specific location, and in the context of globalization, threats are seen as a holistic problem. In the 90s of the 20th century, NATO carried out peace operations for the first time, namely in the Balkans (Bosnia-Herzegovina) in 1995, in Kosovo in 1999, and in Macedonia in 2001, where the bloody conflict of the breakup of the former Yugoslav Republic posed a serious threat not only to regional but also to common European security.
