Ukraine invasion: why eight Nato members triggered article 4 of the North Atlantic Treaty

Research output: Other contribution

Abstract

In the 73 years since the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (Nato) was founded, member nations have activated article 4 of its founding treaty only half a dozen times. The latest instance was on February 24, the day Russia invaded Ukraine. Eight Nato members – Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania and Slovakia – immediately invoked the article, thereby convening a consultation of Nato’s principal decision-making body, the North Atlantic Council.
