In July 2016 Polish capital hosts the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization summit. Big and important event both for the
Treaty and for the region. It is also very symbolic. Not so long ago, 14th May
1955 there was creation of Warsaw Pact, the counterweight to NATO, that
strengthened the Soviet influence in its neighbours in Europe. Poland joined
NATO in 1999, nine years after Warsaw Pact ending. Combination of new
challenges faced by the Treaty nowadays and historic symbolism could bring the
significance of the event as well as, perhaps, new dimension for the
organization.
