I appreciate very much Henrik Larsen's article which was very instructive and insigntful.I think the major drawbacks the NATO have ben facing specifically from the fall of the soviet union was the inconsistent paradigm this collective security organisation is approaching its objectives,actually through cold war le nses.The fundalental lesson NATO should hold from the covid-19 pandemic is that the wars ahead are expected to Be not traditionally major ward with confrontation with great powers,but merely elusive and novel scenario where probably proxy non-actifs sparking off a worlwide conflictuels throug weapons of mass destruction and in particular the bioweapon,most efficient and easy to spread out to great areas of the universe.western societies to cope with this unpreparedness whose states are members of NATO should imitate swiss model of(nuclear) sheltering during the cold war.thanks
