Abstract

Abstract : The South Caucasus and Central Asia are regions of growing strategic importance to European security due to their geographic location and vast untapped energy resources. NATO Secretary-General George Robertson recently visited the South Caucasus and Central Asian states underscoring NATO's resolve to expand security eastward under the Partnership for Peace (PfP) program, the alliance's main framework for military cooperation. The expanded size and scope of PfP, NATO's chief engagement tool in Central Eurasia, clearly demonstrates NATO's commitment to regional security and the increased priority that has been assigned to the South Caucasus and Central Asia in NATO military planning.
