Statement by the NATO Secretary General on the 20th anniversary of the Partnership for Peace
Szöveg: honvedelem.hu / nato.int | 2014. január 15. 9:01Twenty years ago today, at the Brussels Summit, NATO Heads of State and Government took a far-reaching decision: to create a Partnership for Peace with the countries of the Euro-Atlantic area. Their vision was of a partnership that would reach across borders and ideological divides of the past; a partnership that would build peace and security through consultation, cooperation, and common action based on shared values of democracy, fundamental freedoms and human rights.
Partnership for Peace will continue to foster peace and stability in the Euro-Atlantic area and help develop NATO’s growing network of partnerships. As our Strategic Concept makes clear, cooperative security is one of NATO’s core tasks. In September, when we gather for the NATO Summit in Wales, we will mark an Alliance whose partnerships are broader, deeper, and richer than ever before.
