OPERaTiOn BalTic FORTREss, 2016 naTO DEFEnDs THE BalTic sTaTEs RicHaRD D HOOkER, JR The Russian intervention in Ukraine can be seen not as an isolated incident, but as part of a larger strategy aimed at re-establishing Russian control and influence over its near abroad – a sphere of influence severely diminished with the fall of the Berlin Wall. Building on its success in Georgia, the Russian Federation moved aggressively in 2014 to seize Crimea and destabilise eastern Ukraine. In each case, Russia leveraged ethnic Russian populations to encourage separatist movements, introducing Russian paramilitaries, intelligence operatives, special forces and eventually conventional forces. In this hypothetical scenario, written as a ‘historical perspective’, Richard D Hooker, Jr examines a possible next move against the Baltic States, where similar conditions apply.

  • The Future of Airborne Forces in NATO
    NDC Conference Report Research Division NATO Defense College July 2013 The Future of Airborne Forces in NATO NATO Defense College Conference Rome, Italy 11-12 April, 2013 Introduction One of NATO’s core tasks, as outlined in the Strategic Concept, is for the Alliance to prevent crises, manage conflicts and stabilize post conflict situations. This means NATO must maintain unique conflict management skills and the capability to intervene when and where necessary, by rapidly deploying and sustaining robust military forces in the field. To accomplish this essential task, the NATO Response Force (NRF) is designated as the high-readiness and technologically-advanced multinational force that the Alliance can deploy when so directed. However, since political consensus and the NATO decision-making process take time to develop, nations may decide to intervene unilaterally, bilaterally or multilaterally. In this type of scenario, where a sizeable entry force is required to prevent or manage crises, nations may rely on their parachute-capable airborne units to spearhead an operation while an international mandate is developed and a coalition formed. Such forces may also help to shape future intervention operations under NATO command. Looking forward, especially to the post-ISAF environment, NATO should seek to leverage the high-readiness airborne units, separately or in conjunction with the NRF, as an integral component of Smart Defence and the Connected Forces Initiative (CFI), to improve crisis response, to advance Alliance transformation, to enhance operational preparedness and to field military forces that can operate together in any environment. The Future of Airborne Forces in NATO On 12 April 2013, the NATO Defense College hosted a Conference and Workshop entitled “The Future of Airborne Forces in NATO” .

Ahead of the Munich Security Conference 2017, we are pleased to present the report’s third edition. The international security environment is arguably more volatile today than at any point since World War II. Some of the most fundamental pillars of the West and of the liberal international order are weakening. Adversaries of open societies are on the offensive. Liberal democracies have proven to be vulnerable to disinformation campaigns in post-truth international politics. Citizens of democracies believe less and less that their systems are able to deliver positive outcomes for them and increasingly favor national solutions and closed borders over globalism and openness.
