Abstract

The purpose of this article is to understand the factors determining the state of European Union-NATO relations since 2017. Current determinants of these relations are discussed alongside the structures of interinstitutional links between the two organizations. In order to properly investigate the research problems identified, qualitative selection of sources in the form of legal acts and ‘soft law’ documents of the organizations concerned has been employed. The research questions addressed in the analysis concern the sources and dynamics of changes in these relations. The answers are based on an examination of the determinants of behavior of participants in the decision-making process of both organizations. The article is based on the assumption that, in the period analyzed, the hitherto principle of correlation of tasks based on the two organizations mutually complementing their respective potentials, has been modified. Recurrent situations calling for a joint and multidimensional response to cri- ses have considerably widened the potential scope of strategic commitment of both partners and contributed to their links becoming stronger. Intensified activities aimed at developing the EU’s CSDP have occurred while political disputes regarding the role of both entities in the new balance of strategic forces have significantly multiplied. European limitations on ex- ercising an actual military influence in the region impede the chances of effective cooperation between the two entities.

2017-2018年欧盟-北约伙伴关系——建立有效应对威胁的新模式

本文的目的是了解2017年以来决定欧盟-北约关系状况的因素。在讨论这些关系的当前决定因素的同时，还讨论了两个组织之间机构间联系的结构。为了正确地调查所确定的研究问题，采用了有关组织的法律行为和“软法”文件形式的定性选择来源。分析中涉及的研究问题涉及这些关系变化的来源和动力。答案是基于对两个组织决策过程中参与者行为决定因素的检查。本文所依据的假设是，在所分析的期间，迄今为止以两个组织各自的潜力相辅相成为基础的任务相互关联的原则已经改变。要求对危机作出联合和多方面反应的反复出现的局势大大扩大了两个伙伴战略承诺的潜在范围，并促使它们之间的联系更加牢固。旨在发展欧盟CSDP的活动已经加强，而关于这两个实体在新的战略力量平衡中的作用的政治争端也大大增加。欧洲对在该地区行使实际军事影响力的限制阻碍了这两个实体之间进行有效合作的机会。
