The present study deals with the conodont biostratigraphy from the middle and upper parts of the San Juan Formation (Lower-Middle Ordovician) exposed at the Los Gatos creek section, west of the cerro Viejo de Huaco, Central Precordillera of San Juan Province. The numerous conodonts recovered, corresponding to 55 species, allow to recognize a series of biozones in the studied section. The biostratigraphic analysis carried out herein allows determining associations of conodonts assignable to the Oepikodus evae, Oepikodus intermedius, Baltoniodus triangularis-Tripodus laevis and Lenodus variabilis zones that correspond to the middle Floian to lower Darriwilian. The Baltoniodus navis and Microzarkodina parva zones were not identified due to insufficient information provided by this stratigraphic section. In general, the levels corresponding to the Baltoniodus triangularis-Tripodus laevis Zone contain more conodonts, than the records of other localities from Precordillera. These specimens are well preserved with a color alteration index (CAI) of 2-2.5, indicating overburden paleotemperatures ranging from 60° and 155° C. The large presence of fragmented conodonts, with recrystallized surfaces and crystal overgrowth, could indicate the effect of distinctive diagenetic fossil processes on the bearer limestone. The analysis of the diversity and abundance of genera and species of conodonts by chronostratigraphic intervals presents a great percentage of cosmopolitan taxa, 18% and 38% in common, at species level, only with the North-American Midcontinent Province (NAMP), and with a small percentage with the North-Atlantic Province (NAP) and the Precordillera, which allows to approximate a greater paleobiogeographic affinity of the conodonts recovered with those of the NAMP than those of the NAP for the entire interval studied. On the other hand, the Precordillera is verified as a province with its own characteristics as identified by several authors.

The purpose of the article is to describe the changes NATO undergoing in response to the challenges of our time. Today NATO, as a key element of European and Euro-Atlantic security, is adapting to changes in the modern security environment by increasing its readiness and ability to respond to any threat. Adaptation measures include the components required to ensure that the Alliance can fully address the security challenges it might face. Responsiveness NATO Response Force enhanced by developing force packages that are able to move rapidly and respond to potential challenges and threats. As part of it, was established a Very High Readiness Joint Task Force, a new Allied joint force that deploy within a few days to respond to challenges that arise, particularly at the periphery of NATO’s territory. NATO emphasizes, that cyber defence is part of NATO’s core task of collective defence. A decision as to when a cyber attack would lead to the invocation of Article 5 would be taken by the North Atlantic Council on a case-by-case basis. Cooperation with NATO already contributes to the implementation of national security and defense in state policy. At the same time, taking into account that all decision-making in NATO based on consensus, Ukraine’s membership in the Alliance quite vague perspective. In such circumstances, in Ukraine you often can hear the idea of announcement of a neutral status. It is worth reminding that non-aligned status did not save Ukraine from Russian aggression. Neutral status will not accomplish it either. All talks about neutrality and the impossibility of Ukraine joining NATO are nothing but manipulations, as well as recognition of the Ukrainian territory as Russian Federation area of influence (this country seeks to sabotage the Euro-Atlantic movement of Ukraine). Think about it, Moldova’s Neutrality is enshrined in the country’s Constitution since 1994. However, this did not help Moldova to restore its territorial integrity and to force Russia to withdraw its troops and armaments from Transnistria.
