The year 2004 was an exceptional one for the European Union (EU) with the historic enlargement to include ten new member states and the signature in Rome of the Treaty establishing for the first time an EU Constitution. That momentum continued into the first half of 2005, marked by the beginning of the ratification process for the European Constitution. The results of the various ratification processes of the proposed EU Constitution, either through parliament or via a referendum, have varied from one country to another. The European Union has to go through a European context that has proven to be both eventful and tense over the last few months. In line with the post French and Dutch referenda studies, European citizens appear today to be more critical in their analysis of the European Union, without however calling into question either their membership, or the European construction itself. Nevertheless, certain indicators from the recent Eurobarometer survey (fall 2005) reveal significant changes in views and highlight just how necessary it is to bring European citizens and European institutions closer together. Thus, the focus is now on how the European Union will reach successfully its citizens and under which conditions this attempt will be more effective. Under this notion, it is interesting to consider the unquestionable fact that the Internet is changing the world we live in. It is a change no less significant than the Industrial Revolution of the 18th and 19th centuries. Over the last two decades, information technologies and the Internet have been transforming the way companies do business, the way students learn, the way scientists carry out research and the way in which governments provide services to their citizens. In fact, ICTs have managed over the last decade to become the main message vehicles of the modern societies' communication systems. Corporations and governments, upon realizing their immense capabilities, are using contemporary ICTs to disseminate messages, address issues, and ultimately influence public opinion. Living today in the Information Age and as Internet users worldwide are increasing in numbers, organizations like the EU wish to influence the citizens' public opinion using the new digital medium's unique communications capabilities. But any kind of state will not achieve a strong, competitive economy simply by incorporating digital technologies into manufacturing or services. It also needs highly skilled workers to operate the new systems, and digitally literate consumers to buy the new goods and services. That means training and education for people of all ages. Thus, competitiveness depends on how much the state invests in its people. The EU member states will soon have to prove their proactive thinking and their policies effectiveness on the matter. penis enlagement photo vig rx scam penis enargement operation penile enlargment without pills elargement forum free matter penis size penile enlargment tool free penis enlargment exercise truth about penile enlargment

There are so many infections that are caused by Candida, especially the species Candida Albicans, in various parts of the body. Moniliasis or Oral Thrush This type of oral infection usually occurs when there is an overproduction of Candida Albicans. It is also common among denture wearers and occurs to both very young and elderly who are recovering from disease or have an immune system problem. Likewise, people who are experiencing dry mouth syndrome are also prone to having Candidiasis. Candida may be triggered by antibiotic treatment, which decreases normal bacteria in the mouth. Good oral hygiene is encouraged to prevent Candidiasis. Dentures should also be removed especially before going to bed. There are saliva substitutes as well as prescribed medications that may be used to treat some severe case of oral thrush. Intertrigo This is an infection that occurs in the folds of skin, most commonly seen on overweight individuals. Redness and moisture in the skin fold are also observed. Small pustules appear around raised areas of inflamed skin and are usually filled with pus or papules around the main area of redness. Likewise, peeling, itching and swelling are also experienced. Vulvovaginitis This is one of the most common Candida infections, found mostly in women. The symptoms include swelling and itching of the vagina along with a thick, cream or white discharge. There is also pain during intercourse. There is an observed redness with rashes that oftentimes extends to the groin area. Vulvovaginitis is dominant among pregnant women and recurs frequently in women who are using birth control pills. Men can also suffer from vulvovaginitis and this is indicated by inflammation that can be seen on the head of the penis. There can be swelling, and also small red papules or pustules, and often a burning sensation after sexual activity. Diaper Candidiasis This is the type of infection that is commonly seen in babies due to diaper rashes. However it should not be assumed that all diaper rashes are due to Candida. There are signs and symptoms such as small fragile pustules that are often dry and usually peel. In addition, this infection is accompanied by firm reddish nodules of 1 to 2cm on the vulva or the buttocks. There is also nodular granulomatous Candida or granulomatous gluteale infantum. This infection usually clears over time. Paronychia This is an example of a Candida infection that occurs on the nails. People who contract these types of infections generally have their hands in water or handle food on a regular basis as food encourages the growth of yeast on hands. The areas around the nails are usually swollen without the cuticles. There is also postural discharge that results to nail discoloration and often times caused the removal of the nail base. This is also called lateral onycholysis. Chronic Mucocutaneous Candidiasis This is an example of a recurrent Candida infection that does not respond to medical treatments. This is the type of infection is visible in the mouth and on the skin. It can be observed on infants and children. It is identified by persistent oral rashes that may be hypertrophic and produce thick plaque in the mouth. Chronic paronychia is manifested by redness around the nail folds. This infection is usually a genetic condition that is either recessive or dominant. It also may cause endocrine disorders such as hypothyroidism or hypoparathyroidism. If you suspect you are suffering with Candida, you should consult your primary care physician. do pennis enlargement pills work penis enlargment information permanent penis enargement penis enlargement operation vimax penis enlargement secret penis enlarement surgery photo penis enlargment pic before and after penis elargement result penis enhancement surgery

Author: Michael Coleman ISBN: 1412073928: Publisher: Trafford Publishing Today, Norm Goldman, Editor of Bookpleasures.com is pleased to have as our guest, Michael Coleman, author of Keep Your God Waiting: Good day Michael and thank you for participating in our interview. Norm: How did you become interested in the exercise program you advocate in your book and how long have you been implementing it in your daily life? Michael: Hi Norm, first let me say thanks for the opportunity to share some insights on over-40’s health with your readers. Some may find the disclosures a tad provocative but all I ask is that people approach what follows with an open mind. How did I become interested in the program? Well, the program originated as a plea of behalf of the human body. If you’ll bear with me I’ll try to explain… We breathe, we run, we jump, we see, we hear, we laugh, we cry, we process information, we make decisions – in short, we can do all sorts of incredibly complex tasks that require awesome and exquisite intellectual and physical abilities on the body’s part. Yet, we take all this for granted. We have little or no recognition of the fact that the body holds all the knowledge and systems it needs to enable us to perform these tasks without any form of external intervention. This is never more in evidence than when we become ill or feel the effects of aging. Enter modern medicine with practically its whole emphasis on intervention and its prime strategy of evasion based on laboratory drugs and medical technology. Before you switch off this is not a crusade against conventional medicine – that would be completely irresponsible and fail to recognize advances that have been made. In fact, there are circumstances when I would take advantage of some of these developments. Having said that I believe modern medical practice is, by and large, an insult to the body’s innate intelligence In that sense the book and the programs it contains are a plea on behalf of the human body – a plea to recognize the awesome intelligence that we each have available to effect healing and maintain vibrant health and enjoy great sex for as long as we choose. For me the first question was – How do we know the body can heal itself? I imagine most of us have, at some time or other, allowed an illness to run its course rather than resorting to a visit to the doctor. Certainly in that course of action it may take longer for the symptoms to subside but the illness is, more often than not, conquered. So what does that tell us? It says that the body knows how to heal itself without intervention. It has called into play the immune systems defenses. It knows inherently how to organize and program very complex healing processes to perfection. In short, the body is much smarter than we are, much smarter too than any doctor. When we start interfering, for example, by taking medical drugs the body sees these as poisons and has to direct some of its healing effort to dealing with the ‘invaders’ and that delays healing and may, in fact, give rise to other illnesses. In other words ‘curing’ one illness not only confuses the immune system but also can foster the development of another illness. Compare this outcome with the body’s natural approach using its immune system to deal with the invaders. That process gives the immune system a ‘workout’, has no negative side-effects and strengthens its defense should the invader try another attack in the future. The next question was - Can we utilize the awesome healing power stored in the body? Yes, if we discover how to make sure the key survival systems in the body are functioning optimally and then basically leave it to take care of itself. And really that’s what “Keep Your God waiting” is about. How long have I been using the program? The program has taken several years of personal exploration and experimentation to put together so in that sense I’ve been using it for quite a while. The program as presented in “Keep Your God Waiting” was ‘finalized’ about 12 months ago. Norm: Why do you consider yourself to be a maverick with your unique exercise program? Michael: The term ‘maverick’ conquers up notions of something different and that’s what you get. What I’m saying in the program is basically “open your mind, get your gear off” and explore and experiment with the power, potential and exquisite pleasure stored in your body. It’s an exciting journey of self-discovery that could not only transform your health and sex-life but also change the way you think about your life. Now that’s a big call, and it might not be everyone’s experience – but I for one didn’t intend to die wondering! Norm: You use the term “sexual energy” in your book. What is your definition of sexual energy and how does it play an important role in our health? Michael: Sexual energy is a bioelectric energy and goes by many names but I prefer to see it as sperm or ovarian energy – it’s the body’s life force – the power that gives the body vitality. It has its origins at conception and can either be preserved and circulated to benefit from its powerful healing properties or squandered with a consequent depletion in vitality and general deterioration in health. Unfortunately, most of us choose the latter path albeit largely out of ignorance. Sexual energy can circulate around the body via channels or meridians – a term with which most people are familiar. Other bioelectric energy systems include the nervous system and charkas – all three systems are interrelated. Here’s my pretty crude explanation of how I picture sexual energy effecting healing. I’ll focus on the meridian pathways - these are a framework of connective tissue running throughout the body. As a layman the way I see it is that the sexual energy in the form of a bioelectric field flows through the meridian pathways and enters, for example, the organs and glands. Due to the movement of the molecules comprising an organ there is already an electromagnetic field in existence the strength of which, at any particular time, depends upon the relative health of the particular organ. If the organ is diseased the disease alters its natural frequency of vibration – and consequently its function impaired. When sexual energy enters that same organ it’s a bit like re-charging a battery and the organ’s natural frequency of vibration and hence its electromagnetic field are restored, so returning the organ to optimum functioning. Just one final point - sexual energy is very powerful and should be treated as such – special techniques need to be learnt in order to circulate and use it safely – but these can be easily acquired and are described in the book. Norm: You place a great emphasis in your book on strengthening the PC and anal muscles. What is the PC muscle and why do you believe that these muscles are important in increasing one’s life longevity and great sex? Michael: First let me say that I didn’t intend to create the impression that the PC muscle had a significant role in sex and longevity –but I’ll come to that a bit later.. The PC (Pubococcygeus muscle) can best be described as the muscle we use when we wish to interrupt the flow of urine. It gained notoriety when Dr Kegel developed his series of exercises to strengthen the vagina to aid in childbirth – having more control over the vagina also enables women to squeeze the penis during intercourse and hence heighten sexual pleasure. The bonus for men in powering up their PC muscle lies in the fact that it can increase the strength and durations of erections - again heightening pleasure during intercourse. However, there is much more to great sex than the ability to squeeze a penis and enjoy strong erections. What we are concerned with in the program is the circulation and use of sexual energy for not just for sexual pleasure but also for healing, energizing and fostering creativity at any age and regardless of whether one is single or in a relationship. The nature of your question suggests I might have created the impression that the PC muscle was of fundamental importance in ensuring health and longevity. If I did, then I should say now that in my view it plays a minor role. To put things in perspective, I’m concerned with three sets of muscles in the general pelvic region. These are the PC muscle, the Anal muscles and what I call the Lower Belly muscles. My aim is to be able to work, at will, each set independently of the others. This is because the relative contraction and release of the various sets is crucial in the circulation of healing sexual energy around the body. I consider the anal muscles to be the most important because of the critical role they can play in stimulating the flow of sexual energy. That said it is important to recognize that tension in the PC muscle can have an equally powerful negative effect on energy flow. Hence the need for complete control over these muscles as well as the lower belly group. Norm: Why did you feel compelled to write this book? Why do I think the book is important at this time? Michael: I have to say I didn’t feel particularly compelled to write the book. A couple of thoughts were predominant in my mind. Firstly, Hey, this stuff works! - I wonder if anyone else would be interested in discovering how to transform their health and sex-life. Second, and this is a bit more weighty and I don’t want to sound overly altruistic but I strongly believe everyone (providing they are prepared to make the effort) should have equal access to the knowledge they need to achieve vibrant health and enjoy sensational sex. In other words, good health and a great sex-life are not something for which you should have to pay or the preserve of a fortunate few. Why do I think the book is important at this time? I have to say that when it comes to our health we’ve been brainwashed! I’ll have more to say on that later but for now I just make the point that we accept that ill-health and age-related disease are a normal part of living. Further, we believe that the only ways to health are through ‘pill-popping’, hormone injections, sex stimulants, cosmetic surgery, diets, gym workouts, endless jogging – in fact, a whole string of actions that are unnatural as far as the body is concerned and all designed to tackles symptoms and ignore causes. I’m not saying such strategies don’t have a place, in fact they seem to suit some people. Nevertheless, the consequences of these beliefs are reflected in the burgeoning expenditure on sex pills, growth hormone injections, complex vitamin concoctions, spiraling healthcare costs and lengthy waiting lists of persons seeking expensive drug ‘treatments’ and hi-tech surgery and so on. It is paramount to recognize that existing practices have the potential to cause damage the body’s sophisticated mechanisms with, for example, one so-called ‘cure’ leading to the onset of another disease. We also need to recognize that the pursuit of expensive drug and technology ‘solutions’ cannot be sustained economically – governments simply can’t afford the costs. I believe we are at a crossroads and we need to wake up. There are alternatives available that work in harmony with the body’s needs and desires, are completely natural and don’t cost a single cent. Are they the answer to everything – no, but they at least deserve to be the option of first choice when people think about healthcare. Norm: How would you respond to potential readers who might be skeptical about the exercise program you are advocating? Michael: My initial reaction would be to quote grandma “the proof of the pudding is in the eating”. So, unless you have a medical condition that prevents you so doing, put the program to the test – learn to do the Basic 15-Minute Program. You’ll find it described in step-by-step detail in the book and I believe it to be the most powerful single exercise that one can do. If you feel the benefits of that single exercise then you may be encouraged to explore further. However Norm, I think I owe it to your readers to explore the basis of the program in a bit more detail. Let me start by saying I think I can understand where they’re coming from, after all we’ve been conditioned to believe and accept that ill-health and aging are a normal part of living when in fact, as far as the body is concerned, they are not. How do we know? Well, studies on cell division and DNA corruption associated with cell division strongly suggest the human body is designed to function for about 120 years. What does that mean for us? My interpretation is that if the research findings are valid then the body must already have in place all the knowledge and systems it needs to restore and maintain itself for a lifetime without interference. Of course, we manage to inflict (often quite knowingly, other times through ignorance) all sorts of abuse on our bodies with the result that… surprise, surprise… disease develops! I got to thinking wouldn’t it be fantastic if we could use completely natural and harmonious means to tap into the bodies innate intelligence (by the way the intelligence stored in human cells is absolutely awesome, far above anything we can possibly imagine – lets just say it makes Einstein look like a dunce!) and use it to rejuvenate and maintain our health and sex-life. And that’s what the program does. Norm: Why do you feel that masturbation is important in achieving good health? Michael: Oh dear, I don’t know about you but the word ‘masturbation’ seems so lonely – as though it hasn’t got a friend in the world. I wonder why. I might best start by musing that when many people see the word there is an immediate feeling that “I don’t want to be associated with that” – as though somehow it’s unclean and not the sort of thing that nice people do. People forget that masturbation or self-pleasuring (now doesn’t that sound better) is a perfectly natural activity and in fact one in which we all engaged to our great pleasure and delight when we were very young. Later in life we become conditioned to see it as undesirable, perhaps because as its association with male and female ejaculation and the perception that one would go “deaf and blind” as a consequence. Well, I have to admit to be a great fan of masturbation. It is true that masturbation incorrectly performed can cause deterioration in health. On the other hand (excuse the dreadful pun), masturbation can be a powerful healing, highly energizing and creative experience. Why? Because correctly done masturbation greatly boosts the flow of sexual energy around the body and, in particular, to vital organs and glands (glands are a special type of organ so I use the terms separately) the good health of which your energy, vitality and sex-life depend. In the book, I provide step-by-step details on how to take advantage of the huge healing potential masturbation offers. Norm: You state in the conclusion of your book that in order to improve our health we have to satisfy the subconscious mind. Please explain why you feel this way. Michael: For me, the remarkable things about body are firstly, the fact that under ideal conditions it knows how to restore and maintain itself for about 120 years (this limit is set by the number of times a cell can subdivide) and second, that each cell in the body is replaced (through a process of cell division) during a period of about seven years. So we have to ask the question – if the body knows exactly how to look after itself and we routinely get ‘new’ body parts, why do we experience ill-health and aging? In other words, why don’t we get ‘new’ health too? In an attempt to answer this question I want to look at two factors. The first concerns the physical aspect and the second the mental aspect. At the physical level if we abuse our body cells their performance is compromised and when the cells subdivide that compromise is transmitted to the next generation and so on. Also there is largely unavoidable corruption of the DNA at each subdivision – so you can appreciate we really need to look after our cells in order to live a long and healthy life. More important in the context of the question is what is going on at the mental level. I don’t think there’s any doubt that many of us have unwittingly turned off our good health ‘switch’. We have been conditioned (albeit unintentionally) by healthcare product marketers and health authorities to accept ill-health and aging as normal. This acceptance is further reinforced by our friends and relations becoming ill and/or departing this world and by our own attitude to health care. In effect, we have programmed our subconscious mind to believe and accept the fact that illness and aging are inevitable. – when as far as the body is concerned they are most definitely not. What does this mean? It means that whatever we try at the conscious level to improve our health the subconscious will be nagging away with the same old message “ it won’t work, it won’t work” or something like that. I believe this is why most diets fail and why simple affirmations and positive thinking struggle to make any lasting change. We need to reprogram the subconscious mind to accept the fact that we can enjoy vibrant health and great sex for as long as we choose. This can be done by consistently providing the subconscious with positive experiences based on action and reward. In others words our approach must be one of action and movement, not simply contemplation and secondly it must produce undeniable rewards. This approach is the foundation of the programs in “Keep Your God Waiting”. Norm: What challenges or obstacles did you encounter while writing your book? How did you overcome these challenges? Michael The book was several years of experimentation and personal exploration in the making but was very easy to write. Apart from spending time getting the structure of the book user-friendly it was really just a question of writing down what I do. It was just a matter of documenting stuff that I knew intimately and targeting it to a market I not only understood but also was part of. I have to admit that my main obstacle was working with the word-processing package, in particular trying to line up the paragraphs and get the numbering correct – I just don’t like being told what to do my a machine. How did I overcome this obstacle – with much cursing and swearing! I say this ‘tongue-in-cheek ‘ but one of the major challenges of writing a book on health - is not getting sick – otherwise it’s a bit like going to a dentist who has false teeth. Norm: What has your experience been like with self publishing? Michael: I guess I’d make the point that. with no more than about five manuscripts in a 1000 being picked up by conventional publishers, self-publishing using a POD (Print-On-Demand) house at least gets the book in print and, generally speaking, production costs are quite reasonable. There are other advantages like higher royalties and retaining copyright. I don’t want to say much as I’m really still in the middle part of the whole process. However, there is no doubt in my mind that writing a book and getting it in to print is the easy part, it’s the marketing that’s difficult. This is where you need to use a publisher that has an impressive information distribution network. Not that that in itself helps you directly sell your book, but at least people in the book industry know it exists – you’ve still got the marketing slog Norm: What are your hopes for this book? Michael: That it outsells the Da Vinci Code! The book is really about saying to people “Hey, folks wake up” –there is another way to lifetime good health and great sex - and it’s free! If the book does nothing more than opens peoples’ eyes to the fact that they can, if they choose, take control of their health (and their life) I feel it will have made an important contribution. If it became the program of choice for the over-40’s then perhaps the world would be awash with happy, vital and sexy people – and wouldn’t that be nice! Norm: Is there anything else you wish to add that we have not covered and what is next for Michael Coleman? Michael: Simply to say to the over-40’s that far from resigning themselves to the inevitability of sexual decline and aging they should be cranking up their sex-life. It’s not the time for sipping lattes, drinking red and white, reading newspapers and taking overseas trips – instead travel to the bedroom and discover the exquisite power, potential and pleasure of their body. It’s an unforgettable journey of self-discovery - I mean, do you really want to die wondering! Thanks once again and good luck with all of your future endeavors. herbal penis enargement pills guide to penis enlagement pro solution pill review manual penis enlargement penis enlargment product penis enlarement pills product enlagement erection penis pill vimax cheapest pennis enlargement pills penis enhancement surgery

Advertising and news about male enhancement pills is all over the place. What exactly are they? Male enhancement pills are supplements designed to improve every aspect of a man's sexual function, performance and enjoyment. Most are natural herbal formulas that work to increase erection effectiveness and staying power, improve sexual health, reduce premature ejaculation, increase orgasm power, reduce recovery time, boost libido and restore youthful hormonal levels. These male enhancement supplements vary a great deal in their exact formulation and the way they are manufactured, but the high quality ones use time-tested herbals and centuries-old Chinese ingredients to create positive effects on the male reproductive system. Unfortunately, the credibility of this industry has been hurt due to a lot of bad press caused by knock-off products. Although there are a lot of fake products out there, they can be avoided by educating yourself and careful shopping. How do male enhancement supplements work? Each male enhancement supplement has its own precise amounts and combinations of ingredients.As an exemple VigRX contains herbs from many parts of the world formulated into a blend that helps increase blood flow to the penis and testicles. The erectile tissues in the penis, called the corpora cavernosa, are responsible for creating an erection. The careful blend of natural ingredients in VigRX significantly impacts these tissues resulting in a stronger sex drive, a more sensitive, pleasurable experience and increased sexual ability. How many male enhancement pills should I take? This varies from product to product depending on the ingredients, and the size of the supplement. Follow the manufacturer's directions. Don't assume that "more is better." Even though most formulations are safe, it's never wise to overdo dosages of the truly potent herbal ingredients. Although increasing dosage could become harmful, it usually results in product wastage as the excess supplement is excreted from the body unused. Are there any side effects? Although this may vary by product, most male enhancement products are non-prescription formulas and are completely safe for you to use. If you have allergies, you should check the ingredients to make sure everything is appropriate for you. If you have any pre-existing medical conditions, it is strongly recommended that you consult your doctor prior to using any of the products. Who are good candidates for this kind of treatment? All men who would like to strengthen, widen, and lengthen their erection and boost sexual pleasure with a herbal formula that really works. It is helpful to men who suffer from diminished sex drive, early ejaculation, weak or short-term erections, lack of pleasurable sensation and lack of overall confidence about their sexual selves. Although not all products in this industry are legitimate, products like ProSolution Pills and VigRX Capsules can make a huge impact on all of these problems. How long before I feel the results? Provided you chose a quality male enhancement product, you should start noticing results within the first couple weeks of using your supplement. You should notice an improvement in erection hardness and staying power, new levels of libido, and stronger, more pleasurable climaxes. As you continue with the pills over the next few months, these improvements will continue to grow, as longer and firmer erections begin to take shape. Although it varies from product to product, VigRX supplements usually reach their maximum benefits after 4 months and ProSolution after 3 months. I've read that the average penis size is 6 inches. What about men from other races or countries? The Kinsey Report is one of the most complete studies of penis size to date. It states that the average white male has a penis measuring 6.2 inches long and 3.7 inches around, and the average black African male has a penis measuring 6.3 inches long and 3.8 inches around. This is a difference of only 0.1 inches, which is not statistically significant. Generally speaking there is no difference in penis size between different countries around the world. How do these male enhancement products compare with Viagra? Male enhancement supplements share some of the same benefits of Viagra, but they are in a league of their own. Unlike Viagra, they are all-natural herbal formulas with no side effects. They're available easily and discreetly without a prescription, and are safer than prescription drugs that have been linked to trouble among certain men with other pre-existing health concerns. Natural male enhancement supplements are much more affordable than Viagra, both in cost alone and in the added expense of doctor's office visits. How much do the male enhancement supplements cost? Prices for male enhancement pills vary quite a bit, but the caveat "you get what you pay for" applies here. Reputable companies use very high quality ingredients and manufacture in superior pharmaceutical-grade facilities, and therefore their prices may be higher than other brands. VigRX runs around $60 and ProSolution around $80 for a one month supply, but is much less expensive when purchased in larger quantities. Do all companies guarantee their male enhancement products? No, many do not. In fact, some supplement manufacturers are substandard and others aren't around long enough for dissatisfied customers to ask for a refund. Unfortunately, these unscrupulous companies have given the public a negative perception of male enhancement products. To be sure of getting a good product, select a company that has been around for a while, and one that guarantees your satisfaction with a money-back promise. Only companies with excellent products and happy customers who order again and again can stay in this business for very long. Are there other ways to improve my sexual health? Of course, the best way to improve any aspect of your health is to eliminate bad habits like smoking and excessive drinking, give yourself a better diet and exercise regularly. While you're working on healthier living overall, adding a male enhancement supplement can take you to an even better level of sexual performance and pleasure.

NATO enlargement is doubtless one of the most important issues in NATO-USA relations and in attitude of American politics towards this organization. Therefore, in dealing with American-European relations within NATO, it is impossible to question the issue of enlargement of this alliance. NATO enlargement towards Central and Eastern European states was originally the major project in seconding NATO’s viability. The purpose of the first enlargement round was regarded by the USA in preservation of NATO as a form of military-political cooperation between the USA and Europe and conservation of American influence on European security along with strengthening Western military potential for resistance of possible, even in post-bipolar era, threats from the East. To this end, and also with the aim of overcoming alarm of many European allies as to Russian attitude towards enlargement, American diplomacy took to creation and consolidation in Western-European and American political discourses of idea on additional NATO’s function as an organization focusing on spread of democratic values and institutions and stabilizing internal political situation in member-countries. North Atlantic Alliance as instrument of promotion of democracy and stability was accepted by the European leaders as indubitably necessary. In that way, having ensured Europeans’ consent to such broadened understanding of NATO’s function, the United States consequently brought the conflict with Russia to acceptable intensity level by providing Moscow with “special status” in its relations with the Alliance, which was fixed in Fundamental Act between Russian Federation and NATO, signed in May of 1997. The current article isn’t aimed at complete revealing of all the details of NATO enlargement process but instead focuses on the principal issues of American policy shift regarding NATO in general and its enlargement in particular. While in the early January of 1994 the text of President’s „State of the Union” speech noted that American security will further depend on the US ability to most effectively ensure democratic development of Eastern European states, in this way putting particular emphasis on principal role of NATO enlargement for American interests, in the late 1990s and early 2000s this approach fundamentally changed. When in the middle 1990s there emerged an issue of NATO preservation in new circumstances, the United States regarded their North Atlantic allies as potential assistants in carrying out their military operations worldwide in interests of America. But Washington’s expectations concerning significant military contribution of Allies confronted with a cruel reality. For the USA, 1990s became a period of more intense economic growth as compared to the Europeans. This was attended by fast technological progress, particularly in military industry. At the same time, European Allies shortened their military budgets. Thus, 4,565 million dollars, being merely 13-% rise in American military budget, turned out to exceed total budget of any of NATO allies. By the end of the decade, this trend led to the fatal gap of Europe from the level of American military and technological potential. The Allies, apart from Great Britain in some particular cases, proved simply unable to grant the USA assistance in military operations requiring decent technological level. This gap very soon was revealed in action yet before the launch of second NATO enlargement debate. Thus, among the NATO resources involved in Yugoslav military campaign in spring-summer of 1999, American resources played the principal role: about 60-70% of air force and 80-90% of cruise missiles were American. During anti-Talib operation of autumn 2001 even British contribution couldn’t be compared to American: more than 90% of resources and 95% of advanced technology armaments were supplies by the Americans. American government was aware, already before taking decision on anti-Talib war launch, that there was no chance of reckoning on something more than political support and some complimentary military functions on NATO’s part. The last point demonstrating Washington’s attitude to the enlargement process was elaboration of Iraqi operation implementation scenario in 2002-2003, which didn’t even include NATO as military structure along with a number of minor allies. Among other reasons, this happened because absence of internal accord within North Atlantic Treaty Organization concerning necessity of the operation, firmly advocated by the USA and Great Britain. Consequently, American interest in NATO as a block of military allies in many ways expired. The main mission of the Alliance for the United States now turned into political and back support of American military operations. Such shift of mission caused change of American agenda for NATO. In such circumstances, avalanche-like Alliance enlargement became the most appropriate way of enlargement. Therefore, on Prague summit, the invitations to enter NATO were made to seven states: Bulgaria, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, and Estonia. Many of these states had to undergo a long way at least to reach the level of first-wave entrant states. However, in what concerns political support of American military initiatives, newly invited counties showed their support of American policy right away after Prague summit in discussions, and then in actions relating to Iraq in 2002-2004. Since mid 2002, American political analysts have been growingly talking on shifting NATO’s role from military ally of the United States and instrument of collective protection of Allies’ security into “platform for coordination and facilitation of joint diplomatic actions with the uniformly thinking allies”.
