NATO celebrates its 75th anniversary

While being tested by the war in Ukraine, NATO met on Thursday April 4 to celebrate its 75th anniversary.
NATO’s largest exercise since the Cold War took place north of the Arctic Circle in early March. The aim was to achieve rapid military cooperation between the Nordic countries in the event of a Russian attack. More indispensable and more fragile than ever, NATO is being tested by the war in Ukraine. By launching his troops on February 24, 2023, Vladimir Putin awakened a dormant alliance.
“What we are experiencing is the brain death of NATO”
NATO was criticized for its apathy in the 2010s, notably by the French president. “What we are experiencing is the brain death of NATO”declared Emmanuel Macron in 2019 to The Economist. Since then, NATO has found new life with the accessions of Finland, then Sweden in March. Nevertheless, uncertainty hovers over American commitment, particularly in the event that Donald Trump returns to the White House.
