After the NATO–Russia summit in Lisbon in 2010, political leaders announced a new era of relations between Moscow and the Alliance. In Lisbon it was decided to invite Russia to participate in the construction of a missile defence system. Dmitri Medvedev stated that this decision opened a door to talks between the West and Russia. Less than two and half years ago it seemed that Russia and NATO had fallen back into cold war era relations. What has changed since that time between Moscow and the Alliance? Can a major breakthrough and warming in Moscow–NATO relations now be declared? This paper analyses the main aspects of security policy Medvedev addressed to the West. The key point of Russia’s security proposals is to build a new pan-European security architecture. An attempt is also made to answer the question of the motives that led Moscow to again approach the West.
