NATO and Russia may become closer

“We are discussing the nomination of an FSB (Federal Security Service) representative, who will be based in Brussels to liaise with NATO on counter-terrorism,” Expatica gives the words of a Russian diplomat.

The practical details will be discussed later, in particular whether the representative will be registered with NATO or with Belgium.

NATO resumed relations with Russia after a disagreement concerning situation in Georgia. Despite all the differences NATO and Russia have common interests in counter-terrorism actions.

The NATO officials and Russian experts will have a number of meetings to discuss the exchange of confidential information.
