Summary

Developing coalition security strategies within NATO has never been easy. However, it does help to have a thorough understanding of one's allies and their concerns and perspectives. This monograph provides an in-depth view of how three Baltic nations (Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania) view current and future security threats and likely problems. It also recommends some ways in which the United States might respond to these issues.
