North Atlantic Treaty

The North Atlantic Treaty, also known as the NATO Treaty, is an agreement formed in 1949 among countries from North America and Europe to promote mutual defense and security. It establishes that an attack on one member is considered an attack on all, encouraging members to respond collectively to threats. The treaty aims to maintain peace, deter aggression, and foster cooperation among member nations, providing a framework for coordinated military and political support in times of crisis. It’s essentially a pledge of mutual protection to ensure stability in the Atlantic region.
