Politically and symbolically any attack on Belgium – the state where the political and administrative center of NATO is located – is by implication an attack on the US and its global dominance, French journalist and founder of Agora Erasmus political organization Karel Vereycken told Sputnik.
The Brussels terror attacks on March 22, 2016 have triggered a heated debate among political analysts and military experts.
While some thought leaders are calling for strengthening a military alliance between the EU and the US, others have called attention to the fact that NATO has proven inefficient in mitigating and preventing terror threats. On the contrary, they argue, the Alliance has long been fanning the flames of the Islamist insurgency in Central Asia, the Middle East and North Africa.
The irony of the situation is that the NATO Headquarter is just 8 kilometers from the attack sites in Brussels, French journalist and founder of Agora Erasmus, the Belgian LaRouche movement, Karel Vereycken notes.
“Being under attack, Belgium might want to close ranks with its military ‘protector,’ namely the US and NATO. After all, NATO headquarter is located between the Brussels Zaventem airport and the Maalbeek metro station,” Vereycken told Sputnik.
