Summary/Abstract: In the previous decade, Slovakia concentrated on the attainment of two strategic objectives - to become a full-value member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation and of the EU. Both objectives have been attained due to the transparent security policy of the Slovak Republic. By the accession to NATO, the Slovak Republic has become a part of the collective defence and security system as a pillar of the Trans-Atlantic security and stability and by the admission to the European Union Slovakia has won guarantees of political and economic stability, as well as the possibility to actively participate in the formulation, implementation and strengthening of the European security and defence policy. The Slovak Republic reacted to these changes by the preparation of new strategic documents - the Security and Defence strategy.
