Dmitry Medvedev

Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has proposed a pan-European security treaty to countries throughout Europe that appears to undermine the North Atlantic Treaty Organization at a time while he's pursuing his nation's own military initiatives which would be in violation of his plan, according to a report from Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin.

The Moscow proposal would intimidate countries that have expressed concern over Moscow's military assertiveness against Georgia last year but still are dependent on Russia for vital energy resources.

Medvedev submitted the "Draft Treaty on European Security" for "all states of the Euro-Atlantic and Eurasian space from Vancouver to Vladivostok." Its release was timed to coincide with the recent NATO-Russia Council meeting.

The draft includes international organizations and their membership, such as NATO, the European Union, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, the Commonwealth of Independent States and the Russian-led Collective Security Treaty Organization.

"Consistent with past Soviet logic, it argued that an invasion that it had itself undertaken necessitated corrections to the existing security arrangements in line with Moscow's views," said Vladimir Socor of the Washington think-tank Jamestown Foundation. "The document makes clear that the proposed mechanism is intended to disorganize, sideline, and potentially override NATO."

Written to "finally do away with the Cold War legacy," the draft, in effect, is a NATO override and is designed to undermine the Western security organization. This is spelled out in Article 1 which says "security measures undertaken by any participant, whether individually or in the framework of an alliance or coalition, shall be implemented with account taken of all the participants' security interests in conformity with this treaty."

And then in Article 2, the draft further states that a participant "shall not undertake, participate in or support any actions or activities affecting significantly security of any other Party or Parties to the Treaty."

It further stipulates that treaty participants "shall not allow the use of its territory and shall not use the territory of any other party with the purpose of preparing or carrying out an armed attack…or any other actions affecting significantly (the) security" of the participants.

In effect, Russia as a signatory to the treaty could override any NATO decision, including decisions it has made in sending troops into Russia's backyard in Central Asia, or working to gain NATO admission for such countries as Georgia and the Ukraine. Moscow has considered the proposal to admit the two countries as a redline to its own defenses.

In an effort to further tear down NATO, Medvedev's draft treaty includes other articles that lump NATO allies in with Russia.
