Description
Summary:Most Central and East European states (the Czech Republic excepted) feel more insecure in 1994 than they did in 1989. All see PFP as the necessary step to NATO membership and security guarantee -- although they are confused about the relationship of the North Atlantic Cooperation Council (NACC) to PFP and how the Western European Union(WEU) will interact with NATO. They are also concerned about whether Russia will establish a special relationship under PFP. The states fear that PFP has inadvertently undermined sub-regional cooperation and contributed to competition, but they agree that this problem can be ameliorated by advancing sub-regional programs and multilateral military activities.
