The NATO Planning System in the Context of the Provisions of the NATO 2030 Agenda and the NATO 2022 Strategic Concept

2024. Vol. 19. No. 3. P. [issue contents]

This article is devoted to the analysis of key aspects of current changes in the system of military and political planning of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). Within the framework of the post-bipolar world order, a complex process of transformation of the strategic priorities of activities and organizational structure of the alliance is underway. Its key meaning is the effective adaptation of NATO to the significant changes that have occurred in international politics since the adoption of the last strategic concept in 2010. At the same time, the further expansion and internal strengthening of the military-political bloc is designed to ensure the formation of an international order consistent with the long-term interests of the United States and its western allies.

The dynamics of international processes and growing contradictions of the key trends of global development have necessitated the optimization of the activities of the alliance and the adaptation of its functional mechanism to changing international conditions. This task received its doctrinal formalization within the framework of the new strategic concept of the alliance, adopted at the Madrid summit on 29 June 2022. Scientific analysis of the forms and mechanisms of NATO's adaptation to new operating conditions involves empirical consideration and comparative analysis of the key areas of the activities of the alliance.

Within the framework of the undertaken research, based on the application of systemic and structural approaches, as well as the integrated use of general scientific and special methods of political science research, this article analyzes the content of the new doctrinal document both from the point of view of continuity of long-term strategic orientations of NATO's activities and from the position of identifying new components in its military-political planning system. Special attention is paid to the changes related to the conceptually defined priorities of the strategy of the alliance in the sphere of confrontation between the Russian Federation and the People’s Republic of China (PRC).

The analysis of the contradictory processes taking place in NATO and reflected in the content of the NATO 2030 Agenda and the 2022 Strategic Concept seems to be fundamentally significant both in the context of understanding the logic of the development of the entire structure of European and international security and from the point of view of assessing the prospects for further development of relations between the largest military-political bloc and the Russian Federation and other leading actors.
