Belarus
NATIONAL SECURITY
Belarus's national security interests are couched in
conflict. On the one hand, there is the desire by some to
protect
Belarus's independence and its territory. On the other
hand,
there is the desire to appease and even actively to
cooperate
with Moscow, which supplies nearly all of Belarus's fuels
and raw
materials. Although Belarus's Supreme Soviet signed the
CIS
security treaty in April 1993, the government also joined
the
Partnership for Peace program of politico-military
cooperation of
the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in January
1995,
but not before waiting to see what Russia did.
Data as of June 1995
