Summary/Abstract: On August 24, 2019 was celebrated the 70th anniversary of the entry into force of the NATO treaty signed in Washington D.C. on April 4, 1949. Nowadays the public opinion doensn’t know almost anything about the Soviet request from 1954 regarding the accession of the Soviet Union to NATO. Therefore, in the present study we aimed to present the way in which the Soviet authorities tried to provoke the abolition of NATO with an idea that, at a certain moment, was also disseminated by the communist propaganda apparatus from Romania.
