Citizens Declaration

This Citizens Declaration of Alliance Security was launched at a Shadow NATO Summit in April 2009. It sets out some of the basic values and principles to inform the debate about NATO's new Strategic Concept.

We believe that the 890 million citizens within the Alliance should have a voice in shaping NATO's future strategic direction.

We need your help.

Please sign the Citizen's Declaration and add your comments.

Strengthening the Non-Aggression Norm within NATO

Original publication date:

Criticism of Germany as an unreliable military ally is widespread and growing. But rather than deregulating the rules of German military engagement, we should be looking to include similar non-aggression clauses in the national legislation of other NATO member states.
