The aim of this paper is to examine Atlanticism in Central and Eastern Europe, which regards partnerships with the United States in security policy as important. Central and Eastern European leaders believe it is essential that they should strengthen relations with the United States, the only super power after the Cold War, because historically Central and Eastern Europe have had experiences of occupation and domination by neighboring great powers. The author focuses on Polish and Hungarian foreign and security policy. In particular, Poland elevated its position as America's 'protege' in the East. Polish Atlanticism deepened the fissures within Europe in 2003-2004, and led many to refer to Poland as 'America's Trojan horse' or 'Trojan donkey.' The author makes a comparative study of Atlanticism in two countries. He analyses how Polish and Hungarian Atlanticism are related to transatlantic partnerships and division of labor between the United States and Western Europe during three international conflicts, the Kosovo Crisis, the Afghanistan War and the Iraqi Crisis, after the first enlargement of NATO in 1999. The author's paper consists of the following sections: 1. Introduction 2. Central and Eastern European Security Policy after the Cold War 3. The Enlargement of NATO and division of labor 4. The Kosovo Crisis 5. 9/11 and the Afghanistan War 6. The Iraqi Crisis 7. Conclusion
