For the Secretary-General Stoltenberg, it is the ability to adapt that characterizes NATO. In ARD-Interview he hits the bow of the difficult Partner of the Aggressor Russia, and praises Germany.

ARD Since U.S. President Donald Trump, you might think that NATO was only one country: the USA. And all would have to bow to them.

Jens Stoltenberg: the USA is The largest member of NATO. But we are 29 allied, sitting at the table. Decisions are made unanimously. Of course there are differences – we are 29 different countries with different histories and cultures of both sides of the Atlantic.

But the strength of NATO, and that we unite to our main task: to each other to protect and defend. We need that now, because we see a more self confident Russia, which is going on in the East, militarily against his neighbors. We see instability by the “Islamic state” in the South. We are faced with cyber attacks.
