Romania and EURO-Atlantic Integration FROM THE PUBLISHER
The consolidation of a truly democratic political system in the country, the establishment of good relations with neighboring countries, success in fostering interethnic harmony, the creation of a functioning market economy, and significant military reforms that ensure interoperability with NATO forces and assure civilian control over the military all argue for Romania to be admitted into NATO as quickly as possible. The present volume discusses the important progress Romania has made since the fall of communism and the significant contribution the country can make to peace and security in Europe as a member of the NATO alliance.
