| Summary: | The aim of the article is to present the efforts of the Federal Republic of Germany toward NATO’s enlargement in the 1990s. The collapse of the Soviet Union and the political changes in Central-Eastern Europe triggered a necessity to establish an effective framework for multilateral cooperation among the NATO member states and the former members of Warsaw Pact as well as the old Soviet republics. The Federal Republic of Germany along the United States became the driving forces of these efforts to support the NATO’s initiatives such as the North Atlantic Cooperation Council (NACC), the Partnership for Peace (PfP), and the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council (EAPC). These efforts brought to the first historical NATO enlargements in 1997 and 2004. |
