Abstract
Since the North Atlantic Treaty was signed in 1949, the global political agenda has shifted drastically. The new situation forced Western strategists to reconsider the architecture problem of the security of the Atlantic world. It could be either the replacement of existing institutions or their adaptation to the changed realities of the world. Thus, the problem of defining new functions of the Alliance in the changed situation in the Euro-Atlantic region has acquired an urgent importance. After the disputes of the late 1980s, the conclusion was made that NATO should be preserved but adapted to new conditions. Subsequent events have shown that after the disappearance of the bipolar system, the Alliance, which was one of its basic frameworks, not only preserved but also strengthened its positions and even acquired global significance.
