Three wars in Europe in the 20th century escalated into tragic and long global conflicts: World War I, World War II and the Cold War.
Russia’s aggressive foreign policy and peace in Eastern Europe illustration by Alexander Hunter/The Washington Times Danger of a similar escalation of the conflict in the east of Europe still exists and is growing.
Doing nothing or current developments would get us into a continuity with the evils of the 20th century. The impact of detrimental ideologies is growing. Acting in the “spirit of brotherhood” is a personal duty of each of us, especially in time of the ongoing fratricidal war. We are all invited to this obligation by Article 1 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights from 1948.
The original Schuman Plan was about making a new war in united Europe impossible. This project became a reality for the participating countries, existing for over 70 years. Today we need an analogical and different plan to stop war in Europe and prevent any war in the future through reasonable policy and mutual cooperation. Turning confrontation into cooperation is in the interest of nations and their development. Leaders come and go, but nations remain.
Mutually beneficial cooperation can give rise to establishment of a large community from Anchorage, Alaska, to Vladivostok and Kamchatka in Russia through Central Asia and Europe. War in such a community may become impossible and unimaginable, as it was with the successful EU story since 1950. Such a large zone of security, cooperation and prosperity in the Northern Hemisphere would represent an unprecedented and unparalleled force for peace and stability in the world.
Shared security should be offered and guaranteed to all states of NATO and the former Soviet Union. As Europe´s founders did, roots of conflict must be eliminated, and prevention for future lies in sharing resources and security.
