NATO
(pronounced NAY'-TOE) is an acronym for the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization. It is an alliance of countries
that work together to implement the North Atlantic
Treaty.
The original signers of the North Atlantic Treaty in 1949,
and therefore the original members of NATO, were:
Belgium -
Canada -
Denmark -
France -
Iceland -
Italy -
Luxembourg
Netherlands -
Norway -
Portugal -
United Kingdom -
United States
NATO's
essential purpose is to ensure the freedom and security
of its members by political and military means, in
accordance with the principles of the United Nations
Charter. It is dedicated to protecting democracy, human
rights and the rule of law. The best means of safeguarding
these shared values is to bring about a just and lasting
peaceful order in Europe as a whole. NATO has worked
since its inception to achieve this goal. Since 1989
and the end of the artificial division of Europe which
prevailed during the Cold War, enormous progress has
been made but the task is not over. This central objective
remains unchanged.
