Joining the growing chorus of scholars and analysts in the West against NATO and calling it a military bloc to perpetuate the combined American-European hegemony in the world, a Columbia University senior researcher had written: “NATO was the most successful military alliance in the 20th century, accomplishing its significant mission without bloodshed. In the 21st century NATO has become an impediment to a global security architecture of which it could be a cornerstone.” Today, when Beijing is most fearful of a NATO-like organization surrounding China, and Russia which has been baited by NATO into invading Ukraine, one wonders why there are no voices in China and Russia demanding it is high time to write NATO obituary?
