"Choosing Between UN and NATO: A Global Security Dilemma"

The recent NATO summit in Vilnius highlighted Ukraine's path into the Western military alliance and emphasized NATO's self-defined universalism. However, the article argues that NATO's claim of being a "defensive alliance" is contradicted by its aggressive actions, such as the destruction of states like Afghanistan and Libya. The author also points out that NATO's expansion and increasing military spending demonstrate its ambition to subdue any challenges to the "Atlantic Alliance." Furthermore, the article suggests that NATO is positioning itself as a substitute for the United Nations, which is contested by the majority of the world's population.
