Организация Североатлантического договора, как геополитический инструмент давления коллективного Запада, формирует повестку в различной интерпретации для эскалации напряженности или, напротив, для сдерживания России. Пути исследования данного вопроса на текущий момент имеют ярко выраженный враждебный характер. Это не позволяет сформировать устойчивую позицию для дальнейшей деэскалации напряженности, так как исследователи стран Запада и России преследуют политический подтекст текущей международной повестки. В связи с этим в данной статье предлагается рассмотреть альтернативный взгляд на конфронтацию между коллективным Западом и Россией, в том числе в лице своего инструмента – НАТО. Автор проводит обзорный ретроспективный анализ исторических предпосылок, которые, возможно, стали одним из факторов обострения отношений между Западом и Россией со стороны Российского государства. Позиция автора основана на изучении открытых источников информации. Предполагается, что альтернативный подход может способствовать открытию нового подхода к изучению конфронтации между коллективным Западом и Россией. Дальнейшие исследования в области ретроспективных действий и бездействий стран Запада по отношению к России позволят проводить более прагматичные исследования в вопросах формирования международного баланса интересов ключевых политических акторов.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The modern confrontation between the countries of the collective West and Russia is acquiring a new pragmatic character, which contributes to the aggravation of sociocultural problems in many countries in the near and far abroad. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), as a geopolitical instrument of pressure from the collective West, is forming an agenda in various interpretations to either escalate tensions or contain Russia. Currently, the ways of investigating this issue have a pronouncedly hostile character, which does not allow for a stable position to be formed for further de-escalation of tensions. As researchers from Western countries and Russia pursue the political implications of the current international agenda, this article suggests considering an alternative view of the confrontation between the collective West and Russia, including through its instrument NATO. The author conducts a retrospective analysis of historical background, which may have led to the aggravation of relations between West and Russia from the Russian side. The position of the author is based on open sources of information, and it is assumed that alternative approach can contribute to finding new ways of studying the confrontation. Further research into the actions and inactions of Western countries towards Russia will allow for a more pragmatic approach to balancing interests of major political actors.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>НАТО</kwd><kwd>Россия</kwd><kwd>коллективный Запад</kwd><kwd>политические акторы</kwd><kwd>конфронтация</kwd><kwd>Украина</kwd><kwd>Грузия</kwd><kwd>переговоры России и США</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>NATO</kwd><kwd>Russia</kwd><kwd>collective West</kwd><kwd>political actors</kwd><kwd>confrontation</kwd><kwd>Ukraine</kwd><kwd>Georgia</kwd><kwd>negotiations between Russia and the United States</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Алиев В.Р.
