Vývoj bezpečnostnej politiky NATO a EÚ roku 2005 v kontexte bezpečnostnej a obrannej politiky SR

Author(s): Vladimir Tarasovic / Language(s): Slovak Publication Year: 0

The year 2005 was the first whole year of Slovakia’s membership in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the European Union and the first year of evaluation in this regard. The SR was able to react to the fundamental change of its political-security situation after the accession to NATO and the EU and despite several enduring problems Slovakia has achieved a number of considerable successes in the security and defense fields throughout this period. The National Council of the SR passed new security documents in September 2005 – The Security Strategy of the Slovak Republic and Defense Strategy of the Slovak Republic – while this year, Slovakia continued its active participation in 14 missions and operations, comprised of 563 members towards the end of the year.

I really appreciate the opportunity to make a speech at this already traditional annual conference organised with great care by the Slovak Institute for International Studies in co-operation with the Konrad Adenauer Foundation. I would like to express my respect to the experts present as well as the actors directly involved in foreign policy of our country. I realise that the topic of the conference has been somehow narrowed compared with last year. But the prospects of Slovakia's integration are still the highest priority of the Slovak foreign policy this year, which is without doubt going to be the crucial year for them to come true. A more detailed analysis of current situation and of the integration prospects themselves is of course expected from various presenters, the representatives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Slovak Republic who are responsible for the integration of our country, similarly as from others, who are so-to-say our play mates in the process of integration. From my position of the person responsible for the practical implementation of our country's foreign policy and diplomacy, I would rather like to talk about the outer circumstances of implementation the integration priorities of the Slovak foreign policy than its characteristics or evaluation.

I am glad to be here at our traditional meeting, which creates a platform for the Slovak politicians and experts for the regular evaluation of the Slovak foreign policy. The second year of the evaluation conference is truly a proper forum for such a purpose. Slovakia is a parliamentary republic, in which the parliament - the National Council of the Slovak Republic - actively takes part in foreign policy of the country, whether it happens through legislation or by building a new dimension of an active parliamentary diplomacy on a bilateral or a multilateral level. The evaluated year was a demanding and wearying period for the coalition, while it continued the fundamental economic and social transformation. Simultaneously, the coalition was under pressure of solving questions of unemployment, social problems of citizens, increase of prices; and what is more, it had to prove its capability to act effectively at the same time.

I would like to start my presentation by summarizing the most important results of the Slovak foreign policy. I can state with pleasure that in 2000 the Slovak Republic continued in strengthening political stability and acted towards foreign partners as a legible and trustworthy partner. The government took measures for realization of strategic priorities of the foreign policy - achieving membership in the European Union, NATO and OECD soon. The political and economic steps of the Slovak government were received abroad as a persuasive activity proving the interest of the SR to integrate with the most developed states of the world. This brief, a little bit general evaluation can give us the basic picture of the Slovak foreign policy, which will be followed by a more detailed insight into its single achievements but also into its problems.

Peter Weiss has already emphasized the main features in which this conference differed from the one in the previous year. While the last year conference meant a breakthrough in the foreign policy of the Slovak Republic, this conference tries to deal with the progress of our aims more soberly. Compared with the year 1999, I see the events in the foreign policy of the Slovak Republic in 2000 as dramatic.

Európska integrácia a Slovensko

Author(s): Kamil Sládek / Language(s): Slovak Publication Year: 0

The Centre for European Policy is engaged in informing and discussing with the public integration of Slovakia to the European Union and North Atlantic Alliance - thus the focus of our activity is a public education. In 2000 we organised 132 events: seminars, lectures, discussions and conferences for more than 6000 participants. Soldiers of the Army of the Slovak Republic, university students and secondary school students participated in majority of meetings. In the framework of a cross-border co-operation we co-operated with representatives of municipalities, state administration and non-governmental organisations from the Slovak-Hungarian and Slovak-Austrian border. We also addressed the general public during the whole year via regular dialogues with well-known personalities in the TV series "Slovakia and Europe" on channel STV 2.

The European Union and the United States vs. Terrorism

Author(s): Sebastian Wojciechowski / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The interests of the European Union and its member states and those of the United States are divergent if not mutually exclusive on a range of issues. During the first six months of Donald Trump’s presidency, such differences came into sharp relief. Nevertheless, there are still a number of issues in transatlantic relations on which cooperation continues to be good due to shared security priorities. Other than drug and weapons trafficking, an excellent example is the fight against terrorism. Close cooperation in combatting terrorism began after the 9/11 al-Qaeda attack on America. Ties grew even closer after the terrorist attacks on Europe, first in Madrid on March 11, 2004, and then in London on July 7-21, 2005. Another factor was the escalation of threats from ISIS.

Sovětofil, nebo sovětský agent? K úloze Zdeňka Fierlingera v zahraničním odboji za druhé světové války

Author(s): Jan Němeček / Language(s): Slovak Publication Year: 0

Osoba československého (čs.) politika a diplomata Zdeňka Fierlingera vzbuzovala, vzbuzuje a bude vzbuzovat celou řadu otázek, spojených zejména s jeho kontroverzním vystupováním v roli čs. (vel)vyslance v Sovětském svazu za druhé světové války. Je s podivem, že ač jeho úloha v posilování sovětského vlivu na Československo je zcela nepopiratelná, až doposud nevznikla na toto téma žádná větší práce, ba neexistuje ani žádná jeho biografie.

Slovenská armáda v plánoch československého ministerstva národnej obrany v Londýne v rokoch 1943 – 1944

Author(s): Jozef Bystrický / Language(s): Slovak Publication Year: 0

Súčasťou postupu príslušných orgánov československého ministerstva národnej obrany (MNO) v Londýne v rámci príprav prevratu na domácom území bola aj problematika slovenskej armády, resp. možnosti jej využitia a zapojenia do likvidácie režimu Slovenskej republiky a aktívneho vystúpenia proti nacistickému Nemecku. Až do vypuknutia Slovenského národného povstania tu prevládala nielen nádej, že v slovenskej armáde sa nájdu sily, ktoré ju dokážu previesť na platformu československé- ho odboja, ale aj skepsa, pochybnosti a nedôvera voči jej vyššiemu dôstojníckemu zboru. Dokumentuje to úroveň pozornosti akú v priebehu rokov 1941 – 1944 československé MNO venovalo rozpracovaniu opatrení na prípravu prevratu či povstania na Slovensku, meniaci sa charakter úloh a rozsah cieľov, ale aj prístup k riešeniu personálnych otázok.

Bezpečnostná situácia v pohraničných oblastiach Oravy a Spiša v období 1945 – 1947

Author(s): Jan Štaigl / Language(s): Slovak Publication Year: 0

Cieľom tohto príspevku je poukázať na vývoj bezpečnostnej situácie v československo-poľskom, resp. slovensko-poľskom pohraničí v období rokov 1945 – 1947, a to jednak na inkorporovanom území a jednak na slovenskej strane hranice. Časový rámec skúmanej problematiky sa začína oslobodením týchto oblastí Červenou armá- dou a končí rokom 1947, ktorý sa najmä v kontexte podpísania československo-poľskej zmluvy o priateľstve, spolupráci a vzájomnej pomoci stal istým prelomom vo vzťahoch medzi Československom a Poľskom. Štúdiu ponímame ako príspevok k diskusii, ktorá prebieha v slovenskej a poľskej historiografii a v komunite „poľských“ Slovákov na Hornej Orave a Spiši o niektorých aspektoch povojnového vývoja na tomto území. Opierame sa v nej predovšetkým o výsledky vlastného výskumu v archívoch Slovenskej republiky a Českej republiky.

The Janus-face of Slovakia’s Eastern policy in 2017

Author(s): Alexander Duleba / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The Russian–Ukrainian crisis, which began in 2014, marks the end of an era in which both the Slovak political class, including the wider public, shared a common understanding of the country’s foreign policy priorities. This is the first time since the preaccession period of Slovakia’s foreign policy (before 2004) that the country’s political leaders have voiced conflicting narratives regarding an international crisis – including an interpretation of its nature, its meaning for the national interests of Slovakia, and how to respond to it. This article offers an analytical overview of Slovakia’s Eastern policy during 2017, which continued to involve the diverging lines presented by leading representatives of Slovak politics.

Совјетски савез и формирање југословенских снага безбедности (1944–1945)

Author(s): Dmitar Tasić / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

Parallel with the „wartime“ formation of the „New“ or Tito’s Yugoslavia and its armed forces, the process of founding of the security apparatus was also going on. The fact that the war against the occupiers was at the same time a civil war and a thoroughgoing socialist revolution, additionally stressed the importance of well organized and well trained security and intelligence agencies. No doubt, ties established with USSR during the war as well as the known experiences of the October Revolution, civil wars in USSR and in Spain, had a strong impact on the way the Yugoslav security apparatus was formed and used. The split with USSR which came about in 1948 and which influenced this sphere too, would entail stressing autochthonous development or unconscious neglect or total omission of the foreign (speak: Soviet) influence in subsequent research.

В. И. Лебедев: Штрихи биографии. Об угрозе СССР с запада и востока

Author(s): Vladimir Alekseevich Tesemnikov / Language(s): Russian Publication Year: 0

У раду се сагледавају антифашистички ставови дела руске емиграције у Југославији уочи Другог светског рата. Истраживање се базира на анализи чланака Руског архива, часописа који је на српском језику издавао Научни институт београдског одељења Земгора. У часопису су били штампани бројни радови који су аргументовано наговештавали очигледну претњу СССР-у од нацистичке Немачке и Јапана. Званични представник београдског одељења Земгора је био Ф. Е. Махин. Подједнако важну улогу у тој организацији имао је и В. И. Лебедев, чији животни пут није био ништа мање противречан и неизвестан од живота његовог колеге и партијског друга Махина. Обојица у почетком 20. века припадали истој партији – Партији социјалиста - револуционара.

Žene, rat, mir i sigurnost

Author(s): Elmaja Bavčić / Language(s): Bosnian Publication Year: 0

Stereotipna percepcija žene u kontekstu rata, mira i sigurnosti obično je slika viktimizirane žene koja je žrtva rata upravo zbog svoje rodne uloge. Vrlo rijetko se žene vide ne samo kao učesnice u ratu, nego kao te koje su aktivne učesnice i u postratnoj izgradnji društva i, pogotovo, afirmacije koncepta sigurnosti. Ipak, ženski mirovni, antiratni i antimilitaristički aktivizam i njihova uključenost u pitanja rata, mira i sigurnosti ima dugu tradiciju. U ovom tekstu dat je pregled osnovnih koncepata koji su značajni s aspekta promatranja roda unutar ovog specifičnog konteksta. U tom smislu koncentrisat ću se na implementaciju međunarodnih dokumenata, ponajviše UN Rezolucije 1325, kao jednog od najznačajnijih instrumenata u adresiranju rodne perspektive u kontekstu konflikta, te ću se fokusirati na aktivnosti koje je BiH poduzela u implementaciji. Pored toga, adresirat ću pitanje rodno zasnovanog nasilja nad ženama u situacijama oružanog sukoba kao jednog od najčešćih problema s kojima se žene suočavaju. Na kraju ću dati kratki pregled ženskog mirovnog aktivizma u BiH.

Krajem 2016 – ove jeseni sledi nova, već treća po redu zajednička taktička vežba specijalnih vojnih jedinica Srbije i Rusije. Prva vežba je održana 2014, s epicentrom uvežbavanih postupaka u Sremu, na vojno-školskom poligonu u Nikincima. Druga, naredne 2015, u zoni Novorasijska u Rusiji, tada i uz učešće još i vojnih jednica Belorusije. A, ovogodišnja, koja je već najavljena, ali datum njenog održavanja nije preciziran, vraća se ponovo na teren Srbije, ma da, ovog trenutka još bez objavljene lokacije očekivanog dešavanja. Nema ni drugih, javnosti ponuđenih podrobnosti o predstojećem vojnom vežbanju, osim informacije da će akteri biti jedinice za antiterorističke operacije.

Crna Gora: Rusko odmeravanje sa NATO

Author(s): Sonja Biserko / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

Opredelenje Crne Gore da udje u NATO izazvalo je krajnje negativnu reakciju Rusije. Od kada je dobila poziv za NATO članstvo Rusija je pojačala svoje prisustvo u Crnoj Gori kako bi poslala poruku Zapadu, ali I Srbiji ukoliko krene istim putem. Zvanična Crna Gora I premijer Milo Djukanović na poziv NATO gledaju kao na ogroman uspeh Crne Gore i priznanje za reforme koje ona sprovodi. Djukanović ističe da je to važan korak u pravcu učvršćivanja regionalne, evropske i svetske bezbednosti, koji će takodje ubrzati i put Crne Gore u EU. On posebno ističe da je članstvo u NATO najefikasniji i najracionalniji način da se osigura i nagli priliv investicija, što je za crnogorsku ekonomiju principejelno važan faktor. Djukanović je podvukao da je poziv Crnoj Gori za članstvo istorijski dan, najznačajniji posle referenduma 2006. godine, jer Crna Gora ulazi u ekskluzivni krug zemalja koje su sinonim najboljih vrednosti savremene civilizacije

Contradictory messages of Slovakia’s eastern policy in 2018

Author(s): Juraj Marušiak / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The trends that emerged after Ukraine’s “Revolution of Dignity” and the annexation of Crimea in 2014 which led to the deep crisis in relations between the West and Russia were again a key factor in Slovakia’s Eastern Policy in 2018. Relations with Russia, and subsequently Ukraine, remain a strong dividing line within Slovak society. As proposed by President Andrej Kiska, in October 2017, Slovakia’s three highest officials – President A. Kiska, Prime Minister Robert Fico and Speaker of the National Council Andrej Danko adopted a common declaration on the country’s common priorities in the EUand NATO. It stated “unequivocally continuing in a pro-European and pro-Atlantic direction is in the strategic interest of the Slovak Republic.” They stressed their desire to improve the security of citizens “by implementing the updated Security Strategy, Defense Strategy, and Military Strategy of the Slovak Republic” and that this would “support Slovakia’s future inside the core of European integration.”
