This OSCE Network of Think Tanks report examines the debates on Europe’s security architecture from 1989 and 1990 that led to the CSCE’s Charter of Paris. More specifically, it carries out this task to 1) reveal lost opportunities to further European security; 2) highlight divergent national narratives about what occurred during this crucial period; and 3) provide a greater understanding of the origins and key elements of the schisms in Russian-Western relations today.
