Summary/Abstract: The draft treaties with the U.S. and NATO published by Russia on 17 December contain proposals to limit the American and allied presence and military activity in the Russian neighborhood. Most of them are not new and have already been rejected. If now they become an impulse for dialogue with Russia, they could weaken the Alliance. Possible negotiations of regional instruments (regarding the Eastern Flank) of arms control and disarmament may lead to stopping or even withdrawing the process of NATO’s adaptation to the threat from Russia.
