NATO(without usa) VS USA COMPARISON

The NATO without the United States concept seems to be on the verge of futurological discourse and science fiction. This does not change the fact that the discourse on the possible duration of the North Atlantic alliance with the limited participation of the American partner existed in the past and will probably continue in the future. The discourse conducted by politicians, political scientists, and journalists reveals questions for Europe not only about the quality of the transatlantic agreement in the 21st century, but also about the shape of the European integration project and the political, economic, and defense condition of the old continent in general. The aim of this chapter is to look at the projects of European defense sovereignty from the perspective of the concepts, means, and political will needed to implement them. The analysis is designed to take into account the perspectives from both sides of the Atlantic.
