Dear Madam or Sir,

NATO urgently needs to address a range of security challenges and threats that originate not only from the east but also from the south. What can the Alliance do in terms of counter-terrorism, stabilisation, maritime security, and border control? Alessandro Marrone, Senior Fellow at the International Affairs Institute in Rome, argues that NATO has to play a meaningful role in contributing to address these challenges. Enhancing strategic dialogues and defence capacity building are key tools, Marrone concludes.

The Security Policy Working Papers are intended to stimulate debate and help explain current issues.
They can be found on our website: www.baks.bund.de/en/working-papers

We hope you enjoy reading them!

Best regards,

Dr Karl-Heinz Kamp
