Abstract: The main hypothesis of this paper is that the EU and NATO are part of a binomial that represents a solution for fighting against the threats to the Euro-Atlantic security. The challenges of the 21st century are many and complex: the terrorism, the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, the cybernetic attacks, the irregular migration, the climatic changes (global warming), the regional conflicts, the failed states. In order to face these threats, NATO and EU founded a partnership so that they can work together. The cooperation relationship between the two of them was not constant; it has been influenced by many events that affected them in a positive or a negative way. This paper aims to demonstrate that, despite all these events, the NATO-EU binomial is a functional one and that, nowadays, it represents the guarantee for the Euro-Atlantic security.
