US-NATO military fandangos in the Black Sea are part of the Pentagon-Brussels policy of poisonous confrontation that is intended to increase in intensity. The world is becoming an ever more dangerous place.
It may not be possible to completely turn the tide in 2018, but the first tentative moves could be made to put the relationship back on track.
