Map of NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization)

If United State of America give its protection to another 29 members.

NATO’s essential and enduring purpose is to safeguard the


freedom and security of all its members by political and military
means. Collective defence is at the heart of the Alliance and
creates a spirit of solidarity and cohesion among its members.
NATO strives to secure a lasting peace in Europe, based on
common values of individual liberty, democracy, human rights
and the rule of law. Seeing the outbreak of crises and conflicts
beyond Allied borders can jeopardise this objective, the Alliance
also contributes to peace and stability through crisis
management operations and partnerships. Essentially, NATO
not only helps to defend the territory of its members, but also
engages where possible and when necessary to project its values
further afield, prevent and manage crises, stabilise post-conflict
situations and support reconstruction. NATO also embodies the
transatlantic link by which the security of North America is tied
to that of Europe’s. It is an intergovernmental organisation which
provides a forum where members can consult on any issue they
may choose to raise and take decisions on political and military
matters affecting their security. No single member country is
forced to rely solely on its national capabilities to meet its
essential national security objectives. The resulting sense of
shared security among members contributes to stability in the
Euro-Atlantic area. Fundamental security tasks are laid down in
the Washington Treaty (also known as the North Atlantic Treaty).
They are sufficiently general to withstand the test of time and are
translated into more detail in the Organization’s strategic
concepts. Strategic concepts are the authoritative statement of
the Alliance’s objectives: they provide the highest level of
guidance on the political and military means to be used to
achieve these goals and remain the basis for the implementation
of Alliance policy as a whole.During the Cold War, NATO focused
on collective defence and the protection of its members from
potential threats emanating from the Soviet Union. With the
collapse of the Soviet Union and the rise of non-state actors
affecting international security, many new security threats
emerged. NATO is countering these threats by utilising collective
Jens Stoltenberg defence, managing crisis situations and encouraging cooperative
security, as outlined in the 2010 Strategic Concept.
