Abstract: Résumé : Since the launch of the current missile defense system development a decade ago, US decision-makers have ascribed a certain role to the nations of Central and Eastern Europe, choosing this region for its advantageous geographic location and traditional pro-Americanism. The CEE countries, however, received the US proposal with mixed feelings. The American offer appeared at a time when, on the one hand, their Atlanticism had somewhat faded, their disappointment with US foreign policy was widespread and Europeanization of foreign relations was well on its way. On the other hand, the need for a US security and strategic presence was seen as more important and urgent than before.
